Product description

THE ALL-PURPOSE IMAGING SOFTWARE

The PIXet Pro software package was developed for acquisition control of Medipix family chips. It supports most of the available Medipix based devices (Timepix, Timepix2, Timepix3, Medipix3) and commonly used readout interfaces MiniPIX, AdvaPIX, WidePIX etc.

The software offers graphical user interface as well as application programming interface, which makes it a flexible tool for a multitude of applications.

Pixet provides many tools for optimization of detector parameters, data processing, image corrections and scripting. It allows integration of user plug-in modules prepared in C++. Many of such plugins already exists. The program is written in C++ and uses multi-platform Qt libraries.

PIXet is used for:

  • Device control and setup
  • Measuring and reading data from Medipix detectors
  • Visualizing said data
  • Data retrieval
  • Detector configuration
  • Flat-field correction
  • Calibration of measured data
  • Beam hardening correction
  • Cluster Analysis.
  • User manual (ADVACAM Wiki)

All commonly used operating systems (Windows, MacOS and Linux) support PIXet.

Biomedical

Cancer research, bio-mechanics, and drug testing are just a few examples of X-ray imaging contributing to biological and medical research. New photon-counting detectors represent a severe advancement to these applications compared to previously used methods. The energy sensitivity of modern cameras opens better possibilities for identifying individual types of tissue and contrast agents. That has significant consequences in various industries, for example in cancer research, where the tumor tissue can be better distinguished from the healthy one.

Material Analysis

Do you need to determine the material composition of your sample? Minerals, alloys, polymers, electronics, batteries, or pigments? Our cameras are based on cutting-edge single X-ray photon counting sensors, and each detected photon is processed individually. This approach also allows measuring the wavelength of photons. It brings unprecedented image quality and new possibilities, such as material-sensitive X-ray imaging. Moreover, our detectors enable fast and compact X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Crystallography solutions. XRD sample analysis is performed up to an order of magnitude faster than conventional systems. Spectral sensitivity provides a unique ability to inspect the sample surface and its interior (Energy dispersive XRD).
