The Imaging Source, a leading manufacturer of machine vision cameras and software, has announced the release of its new software application, IC Measure. Designed for precise measurement tasks, this versatile tool is now available to enhance your imaging workflow.

Core Features

IC Measure combines powerful measurement capabilities with user-friendly functionality, making it suitable for both macroscopic and microscopic applications. Key features include:

  • Measurement Tools: Accurately measure lengths, surfaces, and angles.
  • Image Capture & Enhancement: Seamlessly capture images and apply various enhancement functions.
  • Calibration Flexibility: Calibrate the software using an ocular micrometer (commonly found with microscopes) or a known-size object like a ruler. This calibration defines the image scale in units ranging from micrometers to kilometers.

Advanced Capabilities

For precise measurements, especially at different magnifications, IC Measure offers:

  • Seamless Zoom Function: Ensures pixel-perfect accuracy during measurement.
  • Lens Distortion Correction: Effectively corrects common distortions like barrel, pincushion, and vignetting effects through sophisticated filters.
  • Image Enhancement Routines: Utilize tools like histogram comparison for optimizing image details.

Annotation Tools

IC Measure provides a suite of annotation features to mark up images:

  • Add text annotations.
  • Incorporate graphics.
  • Use arrow markups to highlight specific areas.

File Handling and Export

The software supports saving individual images or sequences in common formats (BMP, TIFF, JPEG, PNG). Video data streams can be saved as AVI files. Furthermore, all annotation data can be exported as CSV files for further analysis or documentation.

Customizable Camera Settings

IC Measure allows users to fine-tune camera parameters directly from the software:

  • Exposure time adjustment.
  • Image refresh rate control.
  • Focus management.
  • Noise reduction settings.
  • Contrast, brightness, and saturation adjustments.

These settings can be saved for quick recall in future sessions, streamlining your imaging tasks considerably.
