The Turf and Plant Stress Detection Glasses allows you to spot stressed turf close up or at a distance by simply wearing these high tech glasses. With these Turf Stress Detection Glasses, you can spot problem areas on your grass before they become visually apparent. By spotting turf that is under stress early allows you to diagnose problems early by saving time and money.
Simply put the stress detection glasses on and the NASA Technology blocks out
all the green coloring from the field of view. Any stress or change in plant
health will appear as a different color then the surrounding plants.
If you look at any area of like plants, whether it is grass, trees, plants, vegatables,
shrubs, any difference in plant health can be quickly noticed. After the color change is notices
further inspection can be made to determine what is the cause of the stress.
Additional diagnostic tools like Moisture Sensors,
Infrared thermometers and soil thermometers can also be useful in determining the cause of the plant
stress. The Stress Detection Glasses are also ideal for small farms to large agricultural production.

How do they work?
Basically the technology comes from NASA Scientists. The Turf Stress Detection
Glasses were made to allow people in airplanes to fly over forests of the same
variety of trees (Pine, Birch, Elm, Maple, etc...) and spot insect or disease
pressure quickly. The Turf Stress Detection Glasses cut out all the green wave
length light. When used on turf they do the same thing and show stressed turf as
a yellow color.
The glasses will not only show drought stress, they will also show disease,
different varieties of grass (contamination or mutation), insect pressure or
infestation, shallow rooting or turf decline from any other environmental
aspect. They also work on plants, trees, shrubs and in the greenhouse or any area that contains the
same variety of plants in repetitive numbers.
Stress Detection Glasses also offer 99.9% protection from UVA and UVB rays.
In addition, for athletic fields, you can quickly identify faded painted lines as the special lens illuminates anything that was painted previously in white. Once you put them on, you can pick up the old line that were previously painted and freehand all the boxes, circles and arcs without pulling a string, thus saving valuable time.
Before painting - worn and faded paint lines on athletic field are barely visible | Instead of pulling a string, use the Turf Stress Detection Glasses to easily see the paint lines to repaint the athletic Field. This is a view through the Turf Stress Detection Glasses | After using the Turf Stress Detection Glasses, field fully repainted - without re measuring or pulling strings. Also works well on logo areas |
Finished field repainted with aid of Turf Stress Detection Glasses and without the need to re measure or pull strings | The Turf Stress Detection Glasses are also available in over glasses that fit over prescription glasses | This is a view through the Turf Stress Detection Glasses showing worn paint lines that are barely visible to the naked eye now showing clearly through the Stress Glasses for ease of repainting |

Also works well on logo areas without the need for getting stencils out |
