DynamicStudio is the revolutionary software platform for advanced imaging experiments, including easy set-up and control of hardware, data acquisition and storage, fast analysis and presentation of results. The user interface is intuitive with plug-and-play connection of cameras, synchro- nization devices and other hardware. Increasing camera resolution, frame rate and the simultane- ous use of multiple cameras generate huge amounts of data. DynamicStudio handles the data intelligently by distributing data acquisition, storage and processing to GPUs and any number of PCs over a network. This combined with a flexible database structure and advanced analysis, post-processing and visualization modules including support for 3D vision displays and glasses make DynamicStudio capable of covering the widest range of applications. Modern Imaging Applications Require the Most Advanced Software Platform - DynamicStudio Is the Solution DynamicStudio Rising bubble column visualization. Fluid Dynamics Velocity and turbulence mapping, 2 or 3 velocity compo- nents by 2D Least Squares Matching (LSM), Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), Time Resolved PIV (TR-PIV), Volumetric Particle Tracking Velocimetry (PT)V, Tomographic PTV and 3D LSM Fluid temperature or concentration measurements by Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) Mixing Phenomena Liquid mixing by LIF Gas mixing by LIF Particle Diagnostics Particle size and velocity by Interferometric Particle Imaging (IPI), Shadow Sizing and PTV Sauter Mean Diameter mapping by LIF/Mie scattering Combustion Diagnostics Species concentrations (CO, NO, OH, CH, HCHO and others) by combustion LIF (C-LIF) Flame front visualization Soot concentration by Laser-Induced Incandescence (LII) Gas temperature by Rayleigh Scattering DynamicStudio Covers All Your Applications Results of a wake flow measured by stereo- scopic Particle Image Velocimetry.

DynamicStudio Makes Complex Measurements Easy Diagram showing how to connect synchronization cables between the auto-detected devices. User interface to the Acquisition Manager allowing control of traverses and definition of complex automated measurements. Easy Set-up with Plug-and-Play Forget about setting up your system and typing complicated system parameters. DynamicStudio automatically recognizes devices plugged into a PC in the network, and configures them. Cable Connection Wizard The cable connection diagram guides you through the cabling of the system. Automated Measurements With the Acquisition Manager you can set up a series of measurements each with different settings (e.g. traversing position, laser pulse separation or frame rate). This automati- cally controls attached devices such as cameras, lasers and traversing systems. Maximum Frame Rate with Distributed Acquisition Full frame rate on all cameras in multi-camera set-ups such as stereo PIV or Volumetric Velocimetry, LIF or large area applications with image stitching Long measurement series - each PC has storage capacity for the camera connected to it Remote control - the image acquisition system can be in the lab and the control PC in a different room Scalable performance - number of cameras, or storage capacity easily upgraded by adding PCs Different camera types can be combined Instantaneous concentration map derived from Laser- Induced Fluorescence (LIF) measurements of a jet in cross flow. Even the most complex analysis sequences can be defined and applied to different ensembles and handed over to Distributed Analysis using batch processing. Fast Data Access with Distributed Database Data can be stored on separate PCs in a network, yet accessed from one PC. The master database keeps track of the distribution of the data. State-of-the-art database tools provide these advantages: Capacity to store thousands of images as required for good statistics or long time series Simple and robust data management All set-up parameters are stored with each experiment Full documentation of hardware and data processing parameters Fast Results with Distributed Analysis The distributed architecture is very powerful for data analysis; the data is analyzed on the PC that has stored the data. This has several advantages: Reduction of data processing time by parallel computing Reduction of data transfer time Batch Processing for Automated Analysis Analyze vast amounts of data swiftly and consistently: Pre-define analysis sequences Re-use analysis sequences on new data sets About Dantec Dynamics Worldwide representation Dantec Dynamics is the leading provider of laser optical measurement systems and sensors.
