Provided are methods, devices, and systems for a loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) reactions for detecting the presence of genetic material. A LAMP device includes an enclosure having outer walls configured to define an internal space. The LAMP device also includes a tray assembly configured to support a reaction vessel configured for holding a sample for amplification. The LAMP device also includes a plurality of light emitters configured to illuminate the reaction vessel for exciting a fluorescence of the sample in the reaction vessel. The LAMP device also includes an imaging device configured to obtain an image of the sample for determining a quantity of the fluorescence in the sample. The LAMP device also includes a controller configured to regulate a temperature of the tray assembly and instruct the imaging device to obtain the image for determining the quantity of the fluorescence in the sample.
