Our "UniSpec" range of products (UniSpec-SC and UniSpec-DC) have become the industry standard for measurement of vegetation reflectance from individual leaves to whole canopies and large transects. Our customers are made up of research scientists and students from universities and colleges, government research institutes and research laboratories throughout the world. Our instruments have been used in some of the harshest environments around the world and their track record speaks for itself.

--- Attention UniSpec Users (older instruments) ---

The original UniSpec System is no longer being manufactured and has since been replaced by the UniSpec-SC. However, we remain committed to all UniSpec customers when it comes to support and service. If you have any questions related to your older instrument, please email us at support@ppsystems.com. Product updates, latest documentation and software are available to all registered users in the Registered Users Area. Also, since the termination of the HP Palmtop PC, we introduced a nice little upgrade for older UniSpec's that includes a replacement PDA computer and associated software. Click here for more details.
