SPOT: Scanning plant IoT facility for high-throughput plant phenotyping.

Many plant phenotyping platforms have been kept out of the reach of smaller labs and institutions due to high cost and proprietary software. The Scanning Plant IoT (SPOT) Facility, located at the University of Florida, is a mobile, laboratory-based platform that facilitates open-source collection of high-quality, interoperable plant phenotypic data. It consists of three main sensors: a hyperspectral sensor, a thermal camera, and a LiDAR camera.

The Impact of COVID-19 on Solid Organ Donation: The North Italy Transplant Program Experience.
