CI‑110 vs Smartphone Fish‑Eye Canopy Solutions: Can cheap compete?

CI‑110 vs Smartphone Fish‑Eye Canopy Solutions Can cheap compete

Researchers talk a lot about quick canopy imaging tricks lately, especially when phone apps promise convenience. Those tools attract interest because they cost almost nothing and sit in every pocket. Still, when you compare them to a true plant canopy imager, the differences grow obvious fast. The CI-110 sits in a class of its own… Continue reading…

Selecting Leaf Area, Canopy, and Spectral Instruments for Major Crop Types

Selecting Leaf Area, Canopy, and Spectral Instruments for Major Crop Types

Choosing the right crop measurement instruments is one of the most important decisions researchers make before beginning a new project. Each crop type presents its own structural, physiological, and environmental challenges. Leaf size, canopy density, growth habit, and pigment composition all influence what tools will deliver accurate and repeatable data. CID Bio-Science designs instruments that… Continue reading…
