Symposium ‘Sensors and automation in plant phenotyping’

Tuesday, 24 September, 13:30 – 15:00
Language: English

Lecturer 1. Phenospex, Stefan Schwarz
The power of combining 3D with Multispectral information in digital phenotyping
New sensors allow precise assessment of crops in real time. This opens possibilities to automate routine phenotyping applications like disease quantification, germination assays and many others.

Lecturer 2. WPS, Bas Millenaar
Automating the entire seed and plant phenotyping process
Combining camera’s, transport systems, robotics and data analysis enables the user to obtain valuable data from their seed/plant experiments. With automation, It is the art to remove most of the variables in assays, increasing the value of your data.

Lecturer 3. Phenovation, Henk Jalink

New developments in measuring seed and seedling quality
By using fluorescence measurements, it is possible to measure the maturity of a seed. Measuring this with a camera system will result in a quick scan of several hundred seeds in a few seconds. The same camera can also measure the Fv/Fm (efficiency of photosynthesis) of the seedlings and determine if the seedlings are healthy. This can all be done with our automated camera system the PlantExplorer.

Lecturer 4. Synchron, Niels Kruize

Automation of radical emergence using advanced robotics and multispectral analysis
Traditionally the emergence of the radical is measured by visual inspection, usually only once or twice during the germination process. There is a growing need to have much more precise data on the potential for strong and fast germination. Automating the measurement of the emergence of the radical every few hours enables companies to get much more in-depth data, 24/7, on tens- to hundreds of thousands of seeds.

Lecturer 5. Seed-X, Avelino Fernández
Using a new technology, a seed’s phenotypical features can now be digitally and non-destructively analyzed to determine its genetic traits. In this lecture, you’ll discover why and by whom this artificial intelligence-driven technology was developed, and how this “seed by seed” technology works. We’ll also share our achievements on multiple experiments that show the proven value this technology brings to seed breeding and production process in the form of better selections, increased probability of success, and greater sampling confidence.
Come and learn about the future of seed analysis.

The goal of this workshop is to give an overview of different sensors and automation being used by scientists in the plant breeding process. The talks are focused on introducing the different technologies, results and applicability in automated processes.
