and retrieve images with information such as text and voice messages.
Review thumbnail images before retrieving, or search the database for a key
word or album name.
Transmit
images, text, and voice to share information with another workstation for
further review. Images can be transmitted with the marker overlay.
Measures
the horizontal (X) dimension, vertical (Y) dimension, horizontal-vertical (XY)
dimension and diagonals (point-to-point).
Calculates
the angle when operators place two or more points to define each leg of an
angle, even when the vertex is not in view.
Align
mode allows users to move markers in unison to use as a go/no go gage.
Measures
the radius and circumference of a circle when operators place three or
more points along the perimeter of a circular image.
Measures
hardness test indentations and automatically determines Knoop, Vickers, or
Brinell hardness values. Approximate conversions to Rockwell B or C can also
be displayed.
Statistics
mode with mean, standard deviation, low reading, high reading, and range
for X, Y, XY, point-to-point, angle, radius, circumference, area measurements.
Transfer the data to a spreadsheet.
Security
menu allows protection of calibrations. With this protection enabled, only
the password holder can alter calibrations.
Overlay
live images with text to label the video image. The text can be positioned
anywhere in upper and lower case characters. Text files and voice messages can
be attached to each image to give further case background.
Crosslines
can be displayed in one of 10 different line patterns. Crosslines can also
have an open or closed intersection and can be auto-centered.
Allows
comparison of half of the live image with half of the stored image on
screen for quick visual inspection.
Optional
knob controller with card allows quick and precise positioning of
measurement lines that is the hallmark of other Boeckeler VIA measuring
products.
Optional
light pen with card allows quick and precise positioning of markers that
is the hallmark of other Boeckeler VIA measuring products.
Optional
digitizing tablet allows quick and precise positioning of markers.
Freehand
draw or write over the video image with choice of three different line
thicknesses, using an optional light pen or other mouse device.
Displays
path length of freehand drawing as drawing takes place using an optional
light pen or other mouse device.
Calculates
the area of a cell or shape when operators define the cell or shape.
Measures
the long and short chords of a cell or object when operators indicate the
extremes of the perimeter.
Offers a
counting mode. Operators tag each cell or particle to be counted. Up to 10
different categories can be marked.
Ten
different pointers are available, including arrows, standard cross hairs,
a target circle, a small circle, a target box, and a small box.
Reference
circles can be sized and positioned for a quick comparison of objects or
cells to a standard.
Reference
grids can be sized to overlay the video image as an assistance in
counting.
Horizontal,
vertical, or diagonal lines may be positioned in one of three different
line thicknesses.
The
current date and/or time may be displayed anywhere.
Stores
unlimited marker overlays -- simple to complex. Images can be saved with
or without the measurement/marker overlay and exported in many standard
formats, including TIFF, BMP, or JPEG.
Unlimited
calibrations may be stored for future use.
Markers,
text, and measurement lines may be displayed in different colors or shades
for optimal contrast with the video image.
Networking
capability allows multiple users to share the database. Images may be
retrieved or posted anywhere in the network, without exiting the systems. FTP
access and E-mail are available from within the system.
Print
to any Postscript or inkjet printer that uses a Windows 95/98 driver.
Video
input and output available with one of two Coreco Ultra II frame grabbers
and one of three FlashPoint Intrigue frame grabbers; NTSC composite, S-Video
(Y/C) and RGB.
Clipboard
allows users to clip all or part of an image and insert it into a word
processing document, presentation application, or spreadsheet.
Backup
feature allows user to save and restore settings, calibrations, and marker
overlays.
Compatible
