This system is optimized for fibrous root systems and three-dimensional root architecture analysis. By combining automated rotation, high-resolution CMOS imaging, and near-infrared modules, it enables multi-angle, non-destructive root phenotyping with strong suitability for long-term experiments.

Fully Automatic Rotary Positioning Unit + Imaging Control unit + Root Analysis unit + Data Management unit

Multi-angle imaging with automated rotation and vertical positioning

High-resolution visible and near-infrared imaging

AI-driven extraction of structural and physiological root traits

Support for root–environment interaction modeling

Customizable root column dimensions

Plant parameters can measure

Root traits including root length, number of lateral roots, root diameter distribution, surface area, volume, root tip density, etc.

After repeated validation, the system can be applied to the following applications：

Stress Resistance Studies

Monitor dynamic root responses to abiotic stresses such as drought, waterlogging, and salinity.

Breeding Acceleration

Screen superior root genotypes to enhance crop drought tolerance and other stress adaptation capabilities.

Ecological Research

Quantify the contribution of plant roots to soil remediation, carbon sequestration, and other ecological processes.

Precision Agriculture

Optimize water and nutrient management strategies to improve agricultural resource use efficiency.

Laboratory and Controlled Environment

Supports indoor root growth monitoring and phenotypic analysis.
