Particle Analysis Software
This application software can be used for a wide range of samples, from soft to hard materials, to provide powerful help for observing what you want to observe.
Task : Statistically analyze the diameter and length of many nanoparticles or nanofibers.
Silica Nanoparticle Size Analysis

Fiber Isolation
Histogram of Particle Size Distribution
Fiber Length Analysis of Cellulose Nanofibers
Height Image
Fiber Isolation
Histogram of Boundary Length Distribution
This allows isolating numerous nanoparticles and nanofibers from observation data and calculating their diameter, boundary length, or other characteristic quantities. Fiber length is calculated as half the boundary length. Because it can statistically determine characteristic quantities for numerous samples, it can also be used for shape-based quality control applications.
