Delta-T Scan Image Analysis System - DTS

Delta-T Scan Image Analysis System - DTS

  • Optimised for fast, accurate root measurement
  • High resolution over large area
  • No calibration needed
  • Fast root tip count

Despite their importance, root measurements have often been omitted from plant science experiments because of the difficulty of obtaining and analysing samples. Delta-T SCAN and the Delta-T Root Washer have made this a less daunting task. Delta-T SCAN uses a customised, splash protected flat-bed scanner to provide high resolution root analyses quickly and conveniently. The resolution and viewed area offered by Delta-T SCAN surpasses systems based on a video camera.

The Delta-T SCAN software includes the following functions:

  • Root length with a choice of 3 overlap corrections
  • Root length, surface area and volume per unit volume of soil
  • Root length versus diameter distributions
  • Root tip count and location

In addition, Delta-T SCAN has general purpose image analysis functions such as shape and size analysis, direct measurements from maps and photos of known scale, counting of overlapping seeds and small objects, soil particle size distribution, sorting by standard sieve mesh sizes and leaf area measurements.

Delta-T SCAN is a well-featured root measurement system. To assist with preparing root samples, we also offer a unique Root Washer (please see link below).
