When it comes to
quality in quantitative microscopy software, Captiva is the
tool for you. Captiva software allows users to capture multiple
images automatically, to make non-destructive direct measures and
annotations, and save or share images and results with colleagues.
Intelligent software dedicated to
scientific imaging Captiva fills a need in quantitative
microscopy with its intelligent capture and measurement
features. Captiva is ready to use out of the box, and is
an entry-level, upgradeable software, that is the gateway to a
wide range of image analysis products.
Exporting to any image format is made easy; a
simple drag-and-drop operation from the image
window to MS Explorer does the trick. All
annotations will be preserved in the transfer.
Images can also be saved in all known formats with
or without overlays. By saving an annotated file,
the image itself is separated from the annotations
on a different layer that can be turned on or off.
Automatic Image Exposure
With our new Auto-Expose feature, no need ever
to adjust the shutter speed slider or the
illumination. Click on Auto Expose, and voila!
Once done, all settings are automatically saved
for each objective and you never have to worry
about manually adjusting your lighting conditions.
Whatever the original illumination, click on
Auto-exposure button to automatically adjust for
perfect illumination.
Image Capture From Multi
Source
Captiva can manage several cameras and
devices connected to the same PC. All associated
device parameters are easily controlled by the
software and once your calibration and settings
are adjusted the user can switch from one to the
other within the Captiva software.
Calibration Made Easy
Calibration, the process of assigning a size to
a pixel, is an essential operation for any image
analysis. The NIST traceable micrometer
helps users assign a different calibration setting
for each objective. With a motorized stage, simply
click on Calibration and follow the instructions
when prompted. Without a motorized stage, stretch
the caliper over the micrometer and enter the
value in the dialog box. It’s easy and returns
accurate, reproducible, and certified results that
can be validated anytime.
Magnifying Glass Tool
The Magnifying Glass Tool highlights the area
at the tip of the mouse to show accurate detail.
It is integrated in the image window as a child
window, constrained to move with the mouse. With
this tool, measurements can be made with
unparalleled precision.
Adjustable Scale Line
The
Scale Line is either linked to the magnification
or forced to a specific size by entering a value.
It can be positioned anywhere in the image.
