As one of the key crop traits, plant height is traditionally evaluated manually, which can be slow, laborious and prone to error. Rapid development remote proximal sensing technologies in recent years allows estimated more objective efficient fashions, while research regarding direct comparisons between different measurement methods seems lagging. In this study, a ground-based multi-sensor phenotyping system equipped with ultrasonic sensors light detection ranging (LiDAR) was developed....
