PRECiV Capture
PRECiV™ CaptureEntry-Level Package with Core FeaturesPRECiV™ Capture is our entry-level package for customers who want to acquire digital images and make basic 2D measurements, transforming their existing microscopes into digital workstations for applications like incoming goods inspection. |
Designed for Conventional MicroscopyPRECiV Capture is used with our manual and semi-motorized microscope systems and microscope cameras as well as accessories that enable a range of imaging conditions, including brightfield, darkfield, polarization, and anti-halation. When you install PRECiV Capture all the necessary drivers are also installed, making it easy to change which products you’re using. Supported Microscope Frames

Reveal More with Infrared (IR)IR imaging is a fundamental tool for quality control and in R&D laboratories. IR mode enables nondestructive inspection through silicon layers of packaged products during the back-end stage of fabrication. PRECiV Capture has a dedicated shading correction mode for the monochrome cameras used in IR imaging. |
Real-Time Image AcquisitionAll PRECiV packages come with digital live processing technology that enable you to, for example, zoom in on a live image to proof details or make interactive measurements. Acquiring high-quality images is easy as the software’s automatic exposure control, live histogram display, and over-exposure indicator helps ensure that the entire dynamic range of the camera is used while minimizing blooming or glare artifacts. The focus indicator enables you to select a region of interest and bring it into focus. The digital zoom—operated with the mouse wheel—enables you to quickly check the live image window to be sure the camera has captured the desired details—all before you actually acquire and save the image. As a result, images are produced with maximum fidelity and reproducibility, independent of the user. |
Live Image FunctionsPRECiV Capture software’s live image functions, like live overlay and live zoom, enable you to interact with the automatically calibrated live image and perform various annotations. |
Powerful Imaging ToolsDuring live observation or post-acquisition image analysis, PRECiV Capture offers several image-enhancing tools that advance your inspection capabilities and increase your probability of detection. PRECV Capture supports:
Robust color rendering and resolution provide the high-quality images required for industrial applications. PRECiV Capture also has convenient tools that enable you to optimize the live image, including live high dynamic range (HDR), anti-glare, a digital reticle, and a focus aid. | |
Enhanced ContrastHigh dynamic range (HDR) imaging improves image contrast in difficult conditions (very bright areas together with very dark areas in the same image). All cameras supported by PRECiV Capture can be used in this mode, and dedicated cameras have an available live mode. |
Basic MeasurementsPRECiV Capture software enables precise, repetitive two-dimensional interactive measurements on a live or recorded image through a combination of a simple user interface and powerful functions. Supported measurements include distance, angles, rectangles, circles, ellipses, polygons, circle-to-circle distance, angle ruler, and line ruler. Measurement results can be easily compiled in a workbook. |
PRECiV Core
PRECiV™ CoreFocused on Image QualityPRECiV™ Core is ideal for customers in QA labs and inspection rooms with a strong focus on images. PRECiV Core balances cost and features, adding extended focus images and measurement export capabilities for an excellent value. |

This technique combines directional darkfield illumination, which uses a circular LED to illuminate one or more quadrants at a given time, and brightfield illumination, fluorescence, or polarization, enabling users to highlight defects and differentiate raised surfaces from depressions that are normally difficult to see with conventional microscopes. MIX observation helps reduce a sample’s halation and is useful for visualizing a sample’s surface texture.
|
Keep Everything in Focus with Manual and Instant EFI Modes
When analyzing thick samples, PRECiV Core features instant extended focal imaging (instant EFI) technology that enables you to obtain fully in-focus images by serially acquiring multiple images at different focal planes with manual devices. Starting with a simple mouse click, simply focus through the sharpness levels of your sample from top to bottom (or vice versa), and the program takes a series of snapshots and calculates one sharp image. The result can be viewed in real time during the acquisition process. |
Basic MeasurementsPRECiV Core software enables precise, repetitive two-dimensional interactive measurements on a live or recorded image through a combination of a simple user interface and powerful functions. Supported measurements include distance, angles, rectangles, circles, ellipses, polygons, circle-to-circle distance, angle ruler, and line ruler,. Measurement results can be easily compiled in a workbook and exported to Microsoft Excel. |
Automate Repetitive Tasks with MacrosThe PRECiV macro manager enables you to automate repetitive tasks and simplify workflows, including interactive measurements (chain measurement). Simple macros can be recorded and replayed, while an extended set of commands can also be recorded, including image processing with a neural network and create batch processing. |
Analyze Complex Images Using AI TechnologySince image quality and contrast varies with the sample, image segmentation using classical thresholding methods lacks reproducibility and repeatability. PRECiV software with TruAI technology provides image analysis beyond classical algorithms. You can apply a trained neural network to your samples for higher reproducibility and more robust analysis. Choose between semantic or instance segmentation methods for improved neural network training, enabling you to tackle difficult applications in just one step. PRECiV TruAI™ technology also supports live AI, which uses trained neural network (inference) to detect defects in your sample on the live image.* As an option, PRECiV TruAI technology can also count the defects it identifies on the live image as well.** *Using the optional neural network training module. **Using the optional Count and Measure or dedicated Materials Solutions (phase analysis, particle distribution, porosity). |

Non-Metallic Inclusions—Steel manufacturers use this solution for measuring and controlling the shape and size of nonmetallic inclusions (oxide, alumina, sulfide, or silicate) in steel. Cast Iron—Casting manufacturers who need to measure and control the graphite nodularity and check the mechanical characteristics of their cast products use this solution. Layer Thickness—One or multiple layers of a cross-sectioned sample can be measured using the Layer Thickness solution. The shapes are defined, and the layers automatically measured. Porosity—This solution enables pores to be measured either for area fraction or the number of surface pores using regions of interest (ROIs) (circular, triangular, rectangular, and polygonal) and thresholds. Particle Distribution—This solution is used to create particle size distribution histograms and tables from multiple images or image series. Coating Thickness—This solution enables the measurement of coating thickness from top-view images using the Calotest method. Phase Analysis—This feature offers an integrated solution to perform phase analysis on a selection of various regions of interest (ROIs) including triangles, circles, rectangles, and polygons. Dendrite Arm Spacing—This solution is used to manually or automatically determine the mean dendrite arm spacing in cast aluminum. Chart Comparison on Selected Standards for Grain Sizing, Graphite Sizing, Non-Metallic Inclusion, and Hardened Metals—A live or still image can be overlaid onto standard charts for comparison. Function preview is available. |

Acquire Combined Panorama and EFI ImagesThe extended focal imaging (EFI) function enables you to obtain fully in-focus images by serially acquiring multiple images at different focal planes with manual and motorized devices. In manual mode, the panorama function enables you to acquire images larger than the microscope’s field of view by moving the stage across the sample manually or using an automated stage. Using PRECiV Pro software, you can now combine the instant EFI and panorama functions—even for manual microscope stages—while keeping both hands on the microscope. A colored frame indicator shows the quality of each image being stitched together, while a split screen shows the live image and stitched image side by side. With motorized devices, the acquisition of such combined panorama and EFI images runs completely automatically*. *Requires the optional modules Motorization or 3D Acquisition
