Advanced leaf area meter + perimeter, length, width, object count and more
Measures healthy, diseased and pest-damaged area
Optional conveyor for quick results
Choice of camera or scanner systems
The fully updated WinDIAS 3 Image Analysis System performs rapid measurement and analysis of leaf area and leaf features. WinDIAS can measure percentage diseased leaf area, making it ideal for plant pathology, agronomy, plant physiology and forestry.

WinDIAS system options
Whether the need is for simple leaf area measurements or for a powerful, automated analysis system, researchers can specify a WinDIAS system that suits their particular requirements.
Rapid System A powerful and complete system that can handle very long leaves and measure up to 800 leaves per hour. Includes video camera, camera stand, overhead lighting, WinDIAS Software and Conveyor Belt Unit.
Standard System Similar to Rapid System but without Conveyor Belt option. Includes high resolution video camera. Typically processes 150 images per hour.
Entry Level System Comprises WinDIAS Software and A4 flatbed scanner. Typically processes 50 images per hour (at high resolution).

WinDIAS features
Point and click colour selection
Three user-defined colour thresholds
The user can set three colour thresholds. The primary threshold defines the main zone of interest (typically the healthy leaf tissue); the secondary and tertiary thresholds are used for other zones such as diseased or variegated areas. Thresholds are set by simply pointing and clicking in different areas of the leaf with the mouse. The areas identified are made visible as overlays on the image.

Upgrades
Users of older versions of WinDIAS can upgrade to the full WinDIAS 3 specification. In most cases the lightbox, overhead lighting and camera stand will be compatible. Please provide full details of your existing accessories when requesting a quotation.

Conveyor Belt Unit
Convenient measurement of large numbers of leaves
Long leaf mode - measures leaves >1m length
The Conveyor Belt Unit works with the WinDIAS system to offer a rapid and convenient method of handling large batches of leaves. The leaves are gripped and flattened by twin transparent belts which carry them past the camera. As each leaf passes the camera, a measurement is made automatically and recorded by the software.
CONVEYOR BELT UNIT SAFETY ALERT We have discovered a serious problem with the electrical safety of the Delta-T Conveyor Belt Unit. This affects all units supplied since its introduction in 1982, including units supplied as part of the Area Meter, the Area Measurement System (AMS), the DIAS System and the WinDIAS System. Although we are not aware of a single case of a customer being harmed, the risk of serious electric shock is nevertheless real, and it is therefore essential that the Conveyor Belt Unit is not used until modified parts have been supplied and fitted.

If you have any questions or wish to register for an Upgrade Kit, please send an e-mail to Technical Support, including the serial number of your Conveyor Belt Unit.
