Image-Pro Plus From Media Cybernetics
The Leader in Image Analysis
|
| Image-Pro Plus
is the proven solution that makes your job easier and you more productive.
Whether
your job involves failure analysis, analyzing particle distribution of
ceramic material, performing
live / dead cell assays, analyzing tissue
sections, or any of hundreds of other
applications where you need to acquire and analyze images, you can count on Image-Pro Plus
for the solution to your image analysis needs. Image-Pro Plus provides an easy way to
acquire, process, and analyze images on a single machine or across an entire network.
Image-Pro Plus comes complete with point-and-click simplicity, intuitive interface, and
the ability to integrate text, data, and graphics into one package. A Visual Basic
compatible macro language allows for easy customization of Image-Pro Plus to meet your
specific imaging needs. And Image-Pro Plus delivers all the powerful functionality you'll
ever need at a price you can afford. |

CAPTURE
Acquire images easily
from video, digital cameras, scanners, scientific instruments and image databases.
Comprehensive file format and device support, including support for today's most advanced
digital cameras, sophisticated image capture cards, TWAIN, Video-for-Windows (VFW), and
scanner devices, provide unparalleled compatibility between Image-Pro Plus and other
applications and devices. Visit Media Cybernetics' driver support page for the latest list
of supported acquisition hardware.
Capture and process a sequence of images using the sequencer tool. Use the Sequencer to
easily acquire, create, and playback a sequence of images. The improved Sequencer contains
additional playback options and the ability to delete or add frames anywhere in a
sequence. It is fully integrated and supports all Image-Pro Plus Filters.
Use one program for all your color and gray scale imaging needs. Image-Pro provides
full support of 8-, 12-, and 16-bit gray scale and 24-, 36-, and 48-bit color images, as
well as, 32-bit floating point images.
Work more effectively with color images. Color segmentation tools allow you to
interactively separate objects or features from the background based on color
characteristics using a new histogram-based tab dialog. In addition, a color-cube based
color separation tab dialog allows you to create multiple ranges and select colors for
each range. With these tools, you can select and apply multiple color ranges from either
the histogram or color-cube dialogs. |
|
PROCESS
Process images to guarantee high quality,
accuracy and reproducible results. Use equalization, background subtraction, correction,
and field flattening methods to enhance images. Filtering functions will sharpen, soften,
blur, or enhance edges. Separate touching or overlapping objects, and perform morphometric
processing. Execute complex image manipulations that are possible only in the frequency
domain with high-speed Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) operations. |
|
MEASURE
Use Image-Pro Plus for
simple manual measurements to complex automated measurements. Absolute spatial
calibration, closely coupled with your image acquisition device, assures the most accurate
measurement data.
Advanced filtering and segmentation techniques help separate overlapping objects,
complete grain boundaries, and recognize clusters. Once segmented, each grouping can be
color-coded for quick visual identification and class verification. You'll be able to
easily acquire an image of an object, define features in the sample, and automatically
take measurements on selected features such as best-fit arc, best-fit circle, and best-fit
line. Unlike manual or other tedious methods, Image-Pro Plus will quickly calculate
length, radius, diameter, and distance between feature measurements.
In addition, optional pass/fail measurement routines can be recorded in a macro for
future playback. Once these macros are recorded, Image-Pro Plus plays them back whenever
needed making it easier and much faster to perform quality assurance testing.
Image-Pro Plus' Caliper tool detects edges, measures distances, and more. The Caliper
tool allows you to automatically locate edges along straight or irregular lines and
circles. No longer having to rely on manual methods, this tool can automatically detect
and measure distances between edges. In addition, the number of edges or spans between
edges can be reported, making any changes or defects easily identifiable.
Add densitometry with the click of a mouse. Whether you need absorption or reflection
measurements, Image-Pro Plus performs equally well. Our calibration routine takes into
account of all your system variables, providing true absolute optical density
measurements. |

ANALYZE
Test, compare and
visualize your data for maximum results. Collect and visualize your data using
scattergrams, histograms, line profiles, and psuedocolor. Image-Pro's solutions don't stop
there. You can also add, subtract, or mask images with Boolean or arithmetic functions, or
use powerful geometric transforms for spatial manipulations. For convenient archiving,
documentation and further statistical analyses, send results to Excel or other
spreadsheets via Direct Data Export.
View image intensity in 3-D. For improved data visualization, the Surface Plot tool
allows you to display image intensity in a full color 3-dimensional plot. With this tool,
you can rotate, tilt, colorize, and wireframe the plots to aid in data visualization, and
the plot can easily be exported to the Report Generator or your printer. |
|
ARCHIVE
Organize your images and
data more efficiently. The built-in Image-Pro Plus Database provides you with a powerful
tool for acquiring, organizing, storing, retrieving, and sending your images. The Query
Records dialog allows you to perform a search with multiple parameters.
Data entry is easy with the new drop-down choices, which can be pre-defined or
expandable by the user. User-defined custom data fields can attach your specific
measurement analysis and data to each image record. Annotate your image with
non-destructive overlays, which can be saved with the image and recalled later. |
|
COMMUNICATE
Let Image-Pro Plus
connect you to the rest of the world. Share your images and data with your colleagues on
the Internet within the Image-Pro Plus application. Communicate easily and quickly with
popular word processors, spreadsheets, publishing environments, and electronic media.
Produce professional documents and research reports. For printed output, the Report
Generator allows you to create custom formatted reports with images, data, and text.
Images can be inserted into your reports with or without overlay data. In addition,
images, data, and text are easily sized and formatted to your specifications. |
|
CUSTOMIZE
Build customized applications and automate
functions with the included Auto-Pro macro creation features. These powerful built-in
functions let you compress lengthy operational sequences into a single key-stroke or mouse
click, so you can complete your projects faster. Record sessions and play them back.
Integrate and customize macros with Visual Basic or Visual C++ to build applications to
solve your specific imaging needs.
Extend and customize Image-Pro Plus to fit your needs with the freely available SDK.
The Image-Pro Plus Software Development Kit (SDK) offers a powerful development
environment for OEMs, systems integrators, and end-user/programmers to create tailored
versions of the industry standard application for analytical imaging. Unlike programming
toolkits, the SDK offers a proven host environment that can be easily and quickly
customized to solve specific imaging applications without starting from scratch, thereby
reducing development risk and cost. |
