Sell ZooSCAN zooplankton image scanning and analysis system to measure particle size

FranceHYDROPTICcompanyZooSCANZooplankton image scanning and analysis system

ZooSCANThe image scanning and analysis system for planktonic animals is mainly used for counting, measuring the size, identifying species, and determining biomass of planktonic animal samples in liquids.

ZooSCANThe system is composed ofZooSCANTheZooProcessandEcoTaxaFormed together,ZooSCANIt is the hardware part, mainly responsible for scanning zooplankton samples and forming digital images.ZooProcessandEcoTaxaIt is the software part that processes raw images using standardized programs, automatically measures morphological parameters of different individuals, and automatically classifies and counts planktonic animals in the images.

ZooSCANworkflow

1)Scan blank background;2)Scan the sample to obtain the original image and metadata information;3)useZooProcessSoftware that standardizes raw images, extracts and measures morphological parameters of different individuals in the images;4)By extracting and analyzing morphological parameters, further information such as particle size composition and biological volume of the sample can be obtained;5)passEcoTaxaThe image training database established above is used for automatic identification of planktonic animals based on scanned sample images, obtaining the number of different groups of planktonic animals.

ZooSCANApplication field

Ecological investigation, fisheries, aquaculture, education.

ZooSCANworking principle

ZooSCANThe system uses scanner technology, which includes traditional lighting equipment and a watertight scanning chamber for placing liquid zooplankton samples.ZooSCANcanRecord high-resolution digital images, which can then be studied through computer programs. Although the resolution of this digitized zooplankton image is lower than that obtained using a binocular microscope, this technology has been proven to be particularly suitable for use in large sample species. through and withEcoTaxaBy comparing with existing zooplankton databases, it is possible to automatically identify and identify the types of zooplankton in samples.
