RhizoScan in situ scanner uses microroot canal technology to scan plant roots in situ without damage. The measurement process does not interfere with the growth of fine roots, and can continuously or on-line monitor the whole growth or death of the root system. Combined with root analysis software, it can analyze root related parameters, such as root length, area, number of root tips, diameter distribution pattern, number of dead roots and survival roots, etc.
RhizoScan in situ root scanner is the only one that integrates the scanning unit, control unit, power supply system and handle in one system. The scanning process is controlled remotely by the Tablet PC, and the status indicator on the Tablet PC interface shows the running status of the instrument. The whole set of instruments does not have any external cables and control cables, and can easily browse the historical images in the field by Web through various smart phones, Tablet Computers or notebooks.
