The Particle Image Analyzing System is open to University researchers who may be engaged in projects that require system use. Equipment for the system includes a TV camera, a RAM-TEK controller, and a microcomputer. Along with associated software, the system has the capability of two-dimensional particle shape analysis. It yields size and shape parameters of particles ranging in size from a few microns to several centimeters.
Shape parameters are independent of magnification and orientation in the field of view.
