PlantScreen™ Modular System
The plant phenotyping system is designed for non-invasive, morphometric and physiological high-throughput phenotyping of crop plants with dimensions up to 150 x 50 cm (H x W). Between 464 and 1840 plants can be grown on soil in pots ranging from 1L to 5L under controlled environmental conditions with automated and programmable plant handling, precise irrigation, and image-based phenotyping.
The PlantScreenTM Modular System is fully autonomous front-to-end solution for phenotyping of above-ground properties of plants from Arabidopsis to crops. The system is fully integrated into state-of-the-art Walk-In FytoScope chambers providing highly homogeneous plant growth conditions in individually controlled com- partments, i.e. two large-scale cultivation areas each capable of accommodating 232 transportation trays, as well as a dedicated imaging area.

SEEING BEYOND THE SURFACE
Within the infrastructure, plants are transported on conveyor belts from the cultivation areas to the imaging area equipped with automatically operated state-of-the-art sensors integrated into 3 light-insulated imaging cabinets. Cutting-edge imaging sensors include multispectral chlorophyll fluorescence, RGB, VNIR/SWIR hyperspectral imaging, thermal imaging and 3D laser scanning. The imaging units are phys- ically separated from the growth area facilitating the parallelization of measurements via a sample loop and thus improving the throughput, flexibility and sensor utilization.
