FromVienna Scientific Instruments GmbH (VSI)

The root imager allows wide range of basic or applied plant and soil scientists to capture ultra HD digital images (up to 2500 dpi!) of roots and the rhizosphere over one or multiple growing seasons. Durable and lightweight, and equipped with a reliable indexing handle for exact vertical positioning (and an indexing head for accurate circular positioning), the manual & highly portable UHD minirhizotron camera system is an advanced version of the traditional, and much relied on Bartz camera systems. It is robust and easy to transport to any field location and can be used in pots and mesocosms. It is suitable to image horizontally, vertically and angled minirhizotron tubes up to 500 cm in length and can be factory calibrated to various root observation tube dimensions. The Windows OS-based ICAP 8 software quickly and reliable allows to set-up and follow-up root imaging schedules and locations, and handles the comprehensible ICAP naming of images.
