A laser induced fluorescence imaging system is used to acquire images of a passing wave.  Collected images are automatically calibrated and corrected using a target reference image.  The wave surface profile is detected to sub-pixel precision.

 

Features:

• fast processing of multi-frame image files

• edge detection algorithms for locating wave surface

• user editable processing and calibration settings

• supports AVI file format

• surface data can be exported as .csv format for further analysis with MS Excel

• LabVIEW Windows application provides a user interface
