The image processing software integrated in pixel-fox® comes from experienced imaging specialists and is based on very perfected algorithms that have been used and permanently optimised in a professional environment for more than 10 years. Operation of the program and acquiring your images is done with the aid of a graphic user interface that is not only very clearly structured but can also be intuitively learnt very quickly!
Thanks to a large and fast live image you have optimal control over your work - the samples, work pieces or preparations under the camera are perfectly displayed on the PC monitor. An ideal prerequisite for setting all parameters with just a few motions and for making significant images!
All key settings can be implemented directly in the software, e.g.
exposure time (incl. automatic and permanent mode)
brightness / contrast
colour saturation
/ RGB / b/w switching
white balance (incl. automatic and permanent mode)
shading correction
mirroring (horizontal + vertical)
sharpen
centric selectable display window (field of view)
images can be stored as *.jpg, *.bmp and *.png
It is also possible to import existing image files into pixel-fox® (e.g. bmp, jpg, etc.).
Measuring
A key element of the pixel-fox® software is the ability to two-dimensionally measure images previously acquired with the camera. For this purpose the following measuring functions are available to you:
lines
radii
areas
angles
drop a perpendicular
The software also includes:
scaleable scalebars
labelling (arrows and texts)
digital zoom
show crosshairs
settings for lines and labellings
ruler shown on edge of screen
online preview of measured value
Using the stage micrometer included in delivery, calibrations can be done in the software in just a few minutes. Such a calibration is produced (measuring unit freely selectable) for every optical enlargement or camera resolution, saved digitally on the computer and then used for all further measurements - it doesn't get any easier than this.
pixel-fox® is a brand of dhs Dietermann & Heuser Solution GmbH.
