"In further tests, CSIRO validated Cottonscan by measuring a large set of scientifically calibrated cottons from the US," Dr Naylor said.
"Demonstrating its ability to significantly reduce industry costs, Cottonscan was able to duplicate several years of work by American researchers, in a matter of minutes."
A further international trial of Cottonscan will be conducted on three instruments."Having a new instrument accepted in international testing procedures requires complex and carefully controlled comparisons," Dr Naylor said.
"There are many checks and balances that need to be undertaken but, having invented and brought to market numerous fibre, yarn and textile testing instruments, CSIRO understands these procedures well."
