OLYMPUS Stream Adapts to Your Work ow
Live Image Navigation
Using the OLYMPUS Stream image navigation allows you to pan and zoom on live or stored images. The image naviga-
tor interface provides immediate updates of your location on both the zoomed and unmagnied images. The navigation
system provides you with fast, immediate displays of your sample before you acquire the image. All image viewing and
manipulation is carried out with a clean, simple user interface, providing fast and easy-to-interpret results.
HDR Capability
HDR (High Dynamic Range) ofers an exceptional level of contrast for microscopic images containing both bright, highly
reective features as well as darker low-reective features. As an integral part of OLYMPUS Stream software, the HDR
algorithms automatically acquire a series of images at varying exposure times. Within seconds create a composite image
perfectly exposed at every level. This is especially useful for metallurgical microstructures, printed circuit boards, or com-
posite components. HDR imaging is also ofered when acquiring stitched, panoramic (MIA) images, or when using the built
in Extended Focal Image (EFI) capability to create an image with focus even with varying heights.

Manual Multiple Image Alignment
(MIA)
OLYMPUS Stream software provides Multiple Image
Alignment (MIA) to enable the creation of panoramic images
of samples that extend beyond the eld of view. The soft-
ware then quickly stitches them together, providing you with
a seamless image for observation or complex measure-
ment. Simultaneous use of instant EFI is also possible.
*For the appropriate main license for this solution, please refer to the
specication table at the end of the brochure.
Digital Reticle
OLYMPUS Stream brings to you a fully customizable Digital
Reticle. The OLYMPUS Stream scale reticle or variable
mesh grid will adapt to the image magnication and can be
displayed as an overlay to your live image or to your already
acquired image. This will provide you with immediate
understanding of the size of your objects to save you time.
Scales and grids are user denable and can be saved and
reused afterwards.
*For the appropriate main license for this solution, please refer to the
specication table at the end of the brochure.
Instant Extended Focus Image (EFI)

Olympus Ofers Solutions to Save You Time
Autofocus
For precise sample focusing and fast image acquisi-
tion, OLYMPUS Stream ofers two autofocus options. For
surfaces with high contrast, OLYMPUS Stream can use its
contrast-based software autofocus. For surfaces with low
contrast, such as polished or transparent materials, the op-
tional laser autofocus unit is a fast, repeatable option when
integrated with the Olympus BXiS microscope system.
Both systems provide perfectly focused images with the
simple click of a button.
Macro Recorder
OLYMPUS Stream provides a way to preset complex imag-
ing and measuring tasks with the Macro Recorder. The
Macro Recorder creates step-by-step processes, that after
completion, are stored and then implemented with a single
click. The capability ensures diferent operators are using
the same settings for a consistent output.
Automatic MIA/EFI
When creating large, high-resolution automated Multiple
Image Alignment (MIA) images, the combination of
OLYMPUS Stream software with a motorized stage easily
provides a fast result. The operator selects MIA scanning
by using the stage navigator tool, which steps the operator
though the entire process. When using the automatic EFI
function with a motorized focus unit, the software recom-
mends the optimum number of images required to provide
perfectly focused images even outside the depth of eld.
Tilt Compensation
OLYMPUS Stream can recognise a samples tilt by taking
three or more points on the image data when performing
automated MIA using motorized systems. This shortens
the time while increasing the repeatability when acquiring
images.

OLYMPUS Stream Gets You the Image You Want
Surface View
By using the motorized focus unit, samples with diferent heights can be imaged automatically. In addition, a 3D image
can be created that can be measured using the z-stack data.
* For the appropriate main license for this solution, please refer to the specication table at the end of the brochure.
Image Processing
OLYMPUS Stream has a variety of lters for edge detection, smoothing, and other purposes. You can visualize image
features by enhancing and modifying your image with a processing lter. For best results, you can check or adjust the lter
results in a preview display before making the change. Additionally, image manipulations such as sum, subtraction and
erosion are also carried out without losing your original image.

Basic Measurement
Optical inspection and quality control require frequent
measurements. OLYMPUS Stream provides interactive
measurement functions such as distances, angles, rect-
angles, circles, ellipses and polygons. The measurements
are made with your mouse and show immediate feedback
on the image or in the live data table. All results are saved
with the image les as records. To further improve on ac-
curacy, optical settings such as system magnication are
automatically recorded when combined with the Olympus
Microscope system.
Measurement Result
Included with the OLYMPUS Stream Basic package and
other more advanced packages is an integrated data analy-
sis package. The data analysis provides statistical analysis
on your data based on your needs. You can calculate
mean, standard deviation, min, max, and more. All of the
data gathered is exported to Microsoft Excel with a single
click.
Magic Wand
OLYMPUS Stream Essentials and other more-advanced
packages include a wand for automatically detecting the
edges of the sample you wish to measure. The Magic
Wand allows you to select the measurement pointsfree
hand for simple or multiple lines, plus free hand polygon
measurements for irregularly shaped objects.
Layer Management
Each image as it is captured and annotated is broken into
layers (original image, measurement data, annotations etc.),
allowing you to change processing les (smoothing and/
or sharpening) without afecting your measurement results.
You can easily retain your measuring data as you carry out
your analysis and measurements.
Traceability
For quality control and traceability recording the conditions
of image acquisition is essential. With OLYMPUS Stream,
you can quickly create a calibration report for important
information such as magnication, objective lens type, pixel
size, scale bar, etc. The Info Stamp created from updated
calibration information can be overlaid on the acquired
image and reports.
