he CI-203 Handheld Laser Area Meter uses advanced laser technology to enable researchers a precise and convenient way to measure leaf area (or the areas of leaf-like objects). The high-resolution laser scanner, data logger, and display are all enclosed in a single, handheld wand unit weighing 910g. Researchers can perform non-destructive measurements on leaves of living plants by simply pulling a leaf through the instrument, enabling collection of data from the same plant, or even the same leaf, throughout its life span. For rapid measurement of detached leaves, the CI-203CA, conveyor attachment makes a perfect complement to the CI-203.
In addition to the conveyor attachment, the CI-203 also has an optional attachment, CI-203RL for measuring the area of roots and other irregularly-shaped matter. All six measurement parameters (area, width, length, perimeter, shape factor, and aspect ratio) comprise a data set and are compiled at the same time, and over 15,000 data points can be stored and transferred to a computer or printer. |

| This is as easy as data collection gets. To
measure leaf area, simply sweep the leaf
through the measuring wand, and the
CI-203 instantly scans and calculates the
leaf area, width, length, perimeter, shape
factor and aspect ratio.
The CI-203 is flexible as well as fast: use
in the field to measure living leaves on
plants one-by-one, or add the conveyor
attachment and measure hundreds of
individual leaves in minutes. The CI-203
stores over 15,000 data points, and displays
data on the LCD screen. Download
measurements to a computer later at
your leisure via the RS232 port. |
