A portable instrument for measuring macular pigment with central fixation.
PURPOSE To evaluate the reliability and validity of a portable instrument for measuring macular pigment optical density. METHODS The instrument is small, uses light emitting diodes as light sources and the principles of heterochromatic flicker photometry of comparing foveal and extra-foveal minimum flicker matches. It uses central fixation for the extra-foveal matches, which subjects found ea...
متن کاملEvaluation of the OhmMapper Instrument for Soil Moisture Measurement
of the spatial variability in soil moisture within the root zone. An instrument for making rapid measurements of the soil moisture Studies have shown that soil moisture content can content in the root zone is an essential tool for many applications, be inferred from measurements of the soil electrical including understanding of soil water dynamics, evaluation of agriculresistance (e.g., Seyfrie...
متن کاملMeasuring soil moisture with imaging radars
An empirical algorithm for the retrieval of soil moisture content and surface Root Mean Square (RMS) height from remote.ly sensed radar data was developed using scatterorneter data. The algorithm is optimized for bare surfaces and requires two co-polarized channels at a frequency between 1.5 G1lz and 11 GHz. It gives best results for kh <2.5, p, < 35% and 0230° Omitting the usually weaker hv-po...
متن کاملA Measuring Instrument for Multipoint Soil Temperature Underground
A new measuring instrument for 10 points soil temperatures in 0~50 centimeters depth underground was designed. System was based on Silicon Laboratories’ MCU C8051F310, single chip digital temperature sensor DS18B20, and other peripheral circuits. It was simultaneously able to measure, memory and display, and also convey data to computer via a standard RS232 interface.
متن کاملEvaluation and Calibration of a Soil Moisture Sensor for Measuring Poultry Manure or Litter Moisture Content
Moisture content (MC) of poultry manure or litter affects its ammonia (NH 3 ) emissions. Relating MC to ammonia emission of manure or litter is thus of importance to modeling and/or managing ammonia emissions from the manure sources. Development of such relationships would require the knowledge of ammonia emission and the concomitant MC of the manure or litter. This work was carried out to char...
