The LI-COR Quantum Sensor is a ground-based, in situ radiation sensor manufactured by LI-COR. It collects precise photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) measurements beneath vegetation or under artificial light sources. The sensor detects radiation within the same light spectrum (400 - 700 nm) that plants use for photosynthesis. While primarily used for ground-based measurements, the LI-COR Quantum Sensor can also be mounted on aircraft. It is suitable for long-term deployments and remains durable in high temperatures and humidity conditions.
