Particle Habit Imaging and Polar Scattering (PHIPS) probe.

This unique airborne cloud probe combines stereo microscopic imaging with angular light scattering measurements on individual particles.

Hyper-Angular Cloud Polarimeter (HACP).

Measures the angular light scattering of (ambient) cloud particles (water droplets and ice crystals).
