XSEED mini imaging system
XSEED Mini is a compact powerhouse for labs. Designed for laboratories with limited space, the XSEED Mini delivers uncompromising image quality in a compact
form. It is the ideal choice for facilities that need precision imaging without sacrificing workspace efficiency. Detection imaging area is 7 cm x 12 cm with 50 μm
resolution while magnification is contact and 1.3X geometric.
XSEED systems use a combination of high-resolution X-ray imaging and a Proprietary High-Resolution Optical Camera Package. They also feature Image Blender™ Technology, which merges X-ray and optical images into a single, detailed view. This setup allows for non-destructive, rapid seed quality assessment and advanced research analysis. The system is further enhanced by integrated DIGISEED and DIGICOM software for all-in-one imaging and analysis.
Applications of XSEED Imaging Systems
- Seed viability testing: Simplify batch analysis and quickly identify viable seeds for optimized germination rates.
- Quality control in seed production: Detect deformities, voids, and internal fractures in seeds and grains.
- Agricultural research & plant breeding: Enhance phenotypic selection and crop improvement efforts.
- Plant conservation and restoration: Conserve rare or valuable seeds while ensuring the health of resulting seedlings.
DIGISEED® software for easy image analysis
DIGISEED® Seed Analysis Software, included on all XSEED Imaging Systems, provides researchers and seed specialists with the tools needed for precise, customizable, and repeatable seed analysis for seeds ranging from common to unusual, even for very small seeds.
- User-Defined Analysis Parameters –Researchers can set analysis criteria based on their knowledge of specific seedspecies, cultivars, or comparative test results.
- Preset Parameters – Quickly load saved parameters as presets for convenient, repeatable batch-to-batch analysis.
Seamless System Integration – DIGISEED™ works directly with XSEED Imaging Systems, ensuring a smooth workflow for agricultural research, plant breeding programs, and seed quality control. - With just a few clicks, DIGISEED software settings can be tailored to accommodate and quickly analyze a wide variety of seeds. User-set parameters allow DIGISEED to provide seed size, count, density, and fill % in seconds.
