The CI-203 Laser Leaf Area Meter non-destructively measures leaf area, length, width, and perimeter, counts voids, and calculates geometric shape factor and aspect ratio. A leaf image is reconstructed from the scanner data, providing verification of the scan quality in the field.
The CI-203 can perform for hours at a time in the field, and data is easily transferred to a computer with the supplied USB connector. The CI-203 is virtually maintenance free with no servicing required under normal conditions.
The CI-203 Handheld Laser Leaf Area Meter by CID Bio-Science is designed for fast and intuitive leaf area measurements, making it ideal for various applications. In forestry and environmental research, it allows non-destructive measurements, enabling scientists to collect essential data without disturbing natural habitats. Agronomists use the CI-203 to optimize crop production by tracking crop health in response to environmental and nutritional changes. It is also valuable in plant physiology for analysing leaf traits and understanding plant functions. Additionally, the CI-203 is used in ecological studies to gather data on plant interactions and responses to environmental changes. Its ease of use and precision make it a reliable tool for climate research and educational purposes

Conveyor Attachment CI-203CA
For measuring large numbers of detached leaves with the CI-203 Handheld Laser Leaf Area Meter, the conveyor automatically flattens curled leaves to provide precise measurements.
Measure large numbers of detached leaves rapidly by inserting the CI-203 Handheld Laser Leaf Area Meter into the CI-203CA Conveyor Attachment. The combined unit will execute the leaf measurements and data will be displayed and stored on the CI-203 for later analysis. Samples are fed between two glass rollers for speedy scanning, eliminating the need for high-maintenance plastic belts.
