BioTester includes image tracking software which can be used to review and analyze images collected during a uniaxial or biaxial test, providing the researcher with valuable information.

BioTester contains an integrated camera which allows the user to capture specimen images at a rate of up to 10 frames/second. This camera gives an excellent visual of the displacement field and allows the specimen to be seen under tension as the test progresses. It allows the user to review the images after the test is complete.

The image tracking software allows previously captured test images to be analyzed quickly and easily to determine regional property variations and whether there are uniform strains in the specimen. This is critical to natural tissue measurement, where samples are typical not homogenous materials.

The user can review in detail or create a video of any part of the test. Often tests are over many cycles or repetitions. A cycle may have several ‘phases’ including hold, stretch and recovery. Using the integrated software, it is easy and simple to create a video of any specific cycles or phases.

It is simple and easy to compress a video or change the size of images to meet your needs.
