From Images to Answers

MIMAS is the ultimate image analysis software package for fluorescence imaging, quality assurance, materials imaging, and various other scientific, medical, and industrial applications. MIMAS includes extensive enhancement and measurement tools and allows you to write application-specific macros and plug-ins.

Capture

MIMAS provides support for advanced digital cameras, sophisticated image capture cards, and other devices. As new devices are developed, drivers are made available on our website at www.mediacy.com. Capture features include:

  • New streamlined capture interface.
  • New AutoSet feature takes the guesswork out of setting color balance exposure parameters.
  • New semi-transparent live preview feature assists in tiling, stitching, and aligning images.
  • Acquire, create, and playback a sequence (stack) of images.

 

Workflow Management

  • Create customized workflows and interfaces that work the way you do.
  • New floating toolbar builder allows you to create unique toolbars for your specific work process.
  • New built-in configurations customize MIMAS for your industry needs, life science or industrial.

Composite Imaging

Advanced composite imaging features include:

  • New image stitching and tiling tools.
  • New automatic alignment of image stacks to correct for stereo, rotational, and other types of shifts.
  • Extended Depth of Field (EDF) to create focused composite images from a series of unfocused images.
  • New EDF Test Strips automatically tests all EDF options on your images with a single click.
  • Sequence Gallery provides easy image preview.
  • New Set Manager allows you to easily organize, extract, and navigate multiple image sets.
  • New N-dimensional viewer lets you choose variables to display from image sets.
  • Color Composite tool creates a composite image from source gray scale images.
  • New Dye Manager lets you apply dye tints to gray scale images by choosing emission wavelength.
  • New Local Zoom tool allows you to simultaneously view your entire image in one magnified area of that image in a second window.

Enhance

MIMAS offers a wide array of enhancement and image processing tools including:

  • Background subtraction and correction.
  • Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).
  • Extensive list of filters including enhancement, edge, morphological, and large spectral filters.
  • User-definable kernel sizes.

Measure

Guarantee fast, accurate, and repeatable results with measurement options including:

  • New tracking tools allow you to automatically follow objects in a sequence image and measure distance traveled.
  • New Snap feature allows you to automatically save measurements into images for documentation.
  • New Calibration Wizard helps you to calibrate an active image and create reference and system calibrations.
  • Length, area, perimeter, and angle tools.
  • Best-fit line, arc, and circle metrology tools.
  • Automatic count and size tools include over 50 measurement options.
  • Watershed, auto-split, and cluster analysis tools to resolve clustered objects.
  • Caliper tool for edge detection and measurement.

Analyze

Test, compare, and analyze your data for maximum results:

  • Visualize image data with scattergrams, histograms, line profiles, and surface plots.
  • Produce gray scale, color, and 3D representations of co-localization with automatic measurements.
  • Analyze RGB, HSI, HSV, or YIQ content of color images.
  • Add, subtract, or mask images with Boolean or arithmetic functions.
  • Export data to statistical and spreadsheet packages.

Track your Work

When combined with a robust company compliance system, the following features allow you to address concerns of governmental regulatory agencies:

  • Audit Trail logs application events in MIMAS and records them to a printable text file.
  • File and Image Signature create "fingerprints" for individual files and images.

Customize With Auto-Pro

Automate your research with the Auto-Pro programming language.

  • Compress lengthy operations into a single keystroke or mouse click.
  • Integrate and customize macros or plug-ins with Microsoft® Visual Basic® or Visual C++® with our free SDK.

Image Informatics

Transform the data you receive from images into answers with powerful image informatics tools:

  • Highlight details in your images with annotation tools.
  • Generate customized reports with images, data, and text.
  • Use the built-in MIMAS Database or choose to archive, manage, and extract knowledge from your images with the powerful and intelligent new IQbase™ (see back panel for more information).

Stitching and Tiling

Microptik image analize software Mimas Stitching and tiling images
Build a large image from multiple, smaller location acquisitions with Stitching and Tiling tools. Use the tiling feature with an automated stage and the stitching feature with or without an automated stage.

Alignment Correction

Microptik image analize software Mimas Alignment Correction for images

Align individual or sequence images for translation, rotation, or scaling with Alignment Correction. This feature is especially useful for images taken over time, images with some camera movement, or if you are aligning channels in multiple images from a beam splitter or correcting for offset angles through a stereo microscope.

Object Tracking

Microptik image analize software Mimas Object Tracking

Follow objects in image sequences as they move through time and space with the Object Tracking feature. You have the ability to track objects automatically, semi-automatically, or manually.

Dye Management

Microptik image analize software Mimas Dye Management

Apply lookup tables to monochrome fluorescence images using the Dye Management tool. You can use pre-defined lookup tables for many of the popular fluorescent probes or create unique lookup tables for more specialized probes.
