Phenotype where you run your experiments
MicroScan can be transported to any growth or work location. You just need a standard power outlet and a small free spot near your plants. There’s no need to dedicate expensive growth space for big equipment!
Pack, travel & assemble effortlessly
MicroScan is plug and play. Assemble in 10 minutes and start measuring. Keep MicroScan mounted on a table or cart, or pack it for travel by car or plane.
Run multiple experiments with your team in parallel
Set up multiple experiments in HortControl, then measure plants daily or weekly for each experiment.
Transfer knowledge rapidly within teams
MicroScan is easy for any new team member to adopt, reducing knowledge attrition. Learn from colleagues, our step-by-step guides, or our training sessions to start running and analyzing experiments in hours.
Analysis tools, Real-time insights in time series data
Monitor & safeguard your experiments
Ensure you’re collecting the necessary data for your publication. Identify treatment effects early and detect data anomalies – then adjust, improve, and correct where needed.
Detect effects end-point measurements miss with time-series data
Utilize non-destructive time-series data to detect effects early and capture insights that could be missed with single end-point measurements.
Observe effects instantly to validate your data’s value
Understand the value of your data while your experiment is running. Easily group, filter, aggregate, and normalize data on genotypes and treatments, allowing you to detect effects the moment they occur.
Feed open data into any workflow seamlessly
Download your data or utilize our API for direct data transfer of 3D models and parameter data into your subsequent processes.
Leverage interactive 3D visualizations to investigate effects, extract insights & demonstrate findings
Extract additional information from the 3D file, and bring your data to life with visualizations that allow you to understand effects intuitively and demonstrate your findings in presentations. Open the 3D file here >>
