E-diagnostics is a tool used to diagnose swine diseases developed by DVM Alex Ramírez, Full Professor at , together with 333. This tool should only be used as an illustrative guide, under the responsibility of the user. Note: To use this app, you must be registered as a user at pig333.com - Description of the most important diseases and conditions in pigs - Images of major swine diseases Available languages: English, Spanish How the tool works: Select the age of the animals and then the symptoms observed, starting with the most relevant ones. As symptoms are marked, the list of possible diseases that can cause them will be shown for each age group. As more symptoms are selected, the list of possible diseases will be reduced to those that match all the selected symptoms. At the same time, the symptoms that do not correspond to the resulting diseases are deactivated. The number that appears next to each symptom corresponds to the number of diseases that can cause the associated symptom. Results: Marking a symptom will display the number of possible causative diseases. Clicking on this number will bring up a complete list of diseases sorted by age group and likelihood of occurrence- with those listed in a more intense color being the most likely. The resulting number of diseases will be updated as new symptoms are marked. Clicking on the name of each disease we will access a detailed description of the disease with images of the most common lesions. E-diagnostics is a tool that should be used only as a guide and under the responsibility of the user. Keep in mind that disease presentation and severity will depend considerably on the situation in which they occur. Another thing to consider is that we tend to think about diseases as individual entities when in reality several concurrent problems are often found.

Turn your smartphone into a professional-grade light meter. Measure illuminance (lux/foot-candle) and color temperature (CCT in Kelvin) with unmatched accuracy — trusted by photographers, engineers, and lighting professionals worldwide. Why waste money on a hardware meter when you’re already carrying one in your pocket? The LM-3000 offers the same quality and usability as a traditional hardware light meter. Developed by optics scientists at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, LM-3000 is the only light meter app scientifically validated for accuracy. It achieves professional-grade precision by leveraging your iPhone's front-facing camera sensor with advanced RAW image processing. Unlike relying on estimates like other apps, it adheres to the ISO/CIE 19476 standard, ensuring measurements you can trust for critical applications. MEASUREMENTS ⎷ Illuminance in lux or foot-candles ⎷ Correlated color temperature in kelvin FEATURES ⎷ Industry-leading accuracy, matching professional high-end lux meters ⎷ Pre-calibrated for your specific device ⎷ Excellent low light sensitivity to detect light pollution ⎷ No ads ⎷ No Bluetooth and location permission required ⎷ In-app manual ⎷ Save peak reading ⎷ HOLD function with acoustic signal ⎷ Custom calibration option to align readings to another meter DIFFUSER REQUIRED Like every real light meter, the LM-3000 requires a diffuser to measure accurately. A diffuser scatters incoming light evenly on the sensor and prevents hotspots. While it may sound complex, the solution is surprisingly easy. You have two options: 1) Easily build a diffuser yourself in less than a minute using standard printer paper. This is accurate enough for most use cases. 2) Get the dedicated Diffuser Accessory (free worldwide shipping) for best accuracy and convenience. More details on https://lightray.io/diffuser/ (!) Avoid apps that don’t require a diffuser! They are inaccurate because they ignore the basic physics of light measurement. TRY BEFORE YOU BUY The LM-3000 is free to download and comes with a free trial period. The trial period lasts for two non-consecutive days, giving you enough time to see if the app fits your needs. The status of your free trial will be shown as the "battery level" on the top right of the LM-3000's display and on the "Battery Status" screen. Once your light meter's "battery" is depleted, you may choose a Charging Option to keep using the app. You can pick what works best for you: → Single Charge — top-up for another 48 hours (perfect for occasional use), → Continuous Charging — a monthly subscription (great if you use it regularly), → Unlimited Battery — a one-time purchase for unlimited lifetime access LM-3000 is the result of over five years of dedicated research and development, ensuring you get a tool that is precise and reliable. Every in-app purchase supports future development and helps keep the app ad-free for everyone.

ACCURACY Accuracy is not an afterthought — Apps developed by Lightray Innovation are developed according to the ISO/CIE 19476 standard. Thanks to RAW image processing and a default calibration per device model they’re able to match the performance of high quality traditional hardware light meters. To ensure quality we rigorously test our apps regularly on upcoming devices. DOWNLOAD FOR FREE. TRUSTED BY MILLIONS.
