4.2 TNPC release

 

Overview

New design developed under a Visilog 6 environment
Supports recent acquisition cards and IEEE cards for cameras
Multilingual Version  (English and French)
Simplified design to manage big amount of data
Improved data base module to store images and their associated interpretation
Table export (age, growth) toward  MS Excel
Six main modules: acquisition, annotation, global measures, shape analysis, live operations, database
VBA programming environnement (compatible with C/C++)

 

 

 

 

Images acquisition

Several acquisition mode : single image , images batches (scanner, motorized stage), images mosaics,…
Image processing (noise reduction, contrast enhancement, background removal,...)
Automatic image name
Automatic export of data towards a database

 

Global measures

Calcified structures interpretation recording  (reading axis, rings and checks positions, text,…)
Interactive processing (1D analysis of the grey levels  profiles, back calculation, rings position interpolation in the blind zones,...)
Individual growth curves visualization
Fast and easy database creation of interpreted calcified structures images
Age and growth Excel spredsheets creation

 

Shape Analysis

External shape extraction of Calcified structures from images
Shape characteristics processes of the Calcified structures  (Fourier transform parameters, polygonal contours approximation,…)
Parameters table creation (perimeter, surface, length, width, etc…)
Recording of the shape analysis parameters in the database

 

 

Live annotation

Live acquisition of the Calcified Structures interpretation
Coordination of the movements of the motorized stage with the acquisition process
Mosaïc creation and associated data processing
Interpolation tools in the blind zones of the image
Growth data export towards tables (Excel)

Database

All data can be recorded in a database (species catch date, length, age,…)
Queries can be generated
Search and sort tools can be used
Images and associated data can be displayed on the Visilog main window
Image database can be processed sequentially
