Seed Morphology & Analysis Model WinSEEDLE is an image analysis system specifically designed for needle and seed morphology and disease analysis. |
To digitize needles or seeds, WinSEEDLE uses an optical scanner with a special lighting system instead of a video camera. Scanners produce high resolution images free of illumination problems. It automatically detects and analyzes needles much more precisely than conventional area meters (conveyor or camera-based type). |
WinSEEDLE is available in two different versions, REGULAR AND PRO |
| |
The REGULAR VERSION measures the following parameters:
- Total projected area
- Individual and average projected area
- Individual and average straight length (length measured from end to end in a straight line)
- Individual and average curved length (length measured from end to end following the needle/seed center)
- Individual and average maximum width
- Individual and average curvature
- Needle/seed count
- Individual and average volume (estimated from projected area and 3 dimensional model)
- Individual and average surface area (estimated from projected area and 3 dimensional model)
- Perimeter
|
The PRO VERSION does all of the above measurements plus the following:
- Color measurement for disease quantification
|
| |
Additional features of both versions |
- Measurement of straight or curved needles/seeds
- Automatic filtering of defects and debris
- Interactive image edition
- Measurements are visible in the images. Corrections can be done by the operator before saving data.
- Special lighting system to avoid shadows during image acquisition
- Data saved in ASCII format for easy transfer to data analysis or data visualization software
- Batch scanning and analysis: to scan and store images of needles and analyze them later
- Histogram of needle/seed length, width or area displayed on screen during measurement
