June 17th, 2022
Protochips is excited to introduce AXON Studio v10.6.1, which brings a variety of new features, improvements, and bug fixes to the AXON software package. Any users running a prior version of AXON Studio with an active license are eligible for this free update.
V10.6.1 is the first AXON Studio version that supports Dose workflows and data bringing a new layer of analysis to S/TEM.
What’s in Version 10.6.1
What’s New:
- New AXON Studio Toolbox rectangle draw tool with selected area statistics for min/max/median/mean pixel value, physical area, physical x/y length, pixel x/y length and min/max/median/mean dose (Dose libraries only).
- New AXON Studio Toolbox line draw tool with statistics for
min/max/median/mean pixel value, angle, physical length, pixel length and min/max/median/mean dose (Dose libraries only).
- New AXON Studio Toolbox histogram plots for whole image, and selected rectangles.
- New AXON Studio Toolbox pixel intensity vs. linear distance plots for line draw tool.
- New FFT rectangle draw tool, selected area statistics for peak spatial frequency, intensity sum, intensity min/max/median/mean.
- New image tooltip, image pixel intensity value and cumulative dose value (Dose libraries only) reported on mouse hover over the image.
- New sample management workflow within Dose (Dose libraries only) where a low dose level, high dose level and high dose rate are established for each sample.
- New dose monitoring workflow within Dose (Dose libraries only) where indicators report the dose rate and cumulative dose for each image against sample thresholds.
- New dose layer overlay option, visually show cumulative dose levels on the image. (Dose libraries only)
- New publishing option to annotate dose layer in image stacks and color videos. (Dose libraries only)
- New metadata parameters for dose rate (Dose libraries only),
min/max/median/mean cumulative dose (Dose libraries only), incremental dose (Dose libraries only), and dose x/y position (Dose libraries only)
- New metadata parameters for beam current (Dose libraries only) and dose area (Dose libraries only).
- New metadata parameters for raw pixel sum, camera conversion current (Dose libraries only), and camera conversion dose rate (Dose libraries only).
- New metadata parameters for condenser lens settings and condenser lens configuration.
- New metadata parameters for monochromator gun lens setting.
- New metadata parameter for CFEG anode targets and emission current.
What’s Improved:
- Faster timeline scrubbing and image navigation on larger libraries.
- Larger preview image when hovering over the timeline.
- Updated FFT max radial sum plot tooltip, detailing spatial frequency when hovering over the plot.
- Improved Repair Library process that automatically scans for missing images in the library and prompts a repair detailing the necessary fixes.
What’s Fixed:
- Fixed AXON Studio crashes due to missing images through new repair library function.
- Added units to image acquisition rate data.
- Fixed bug in the tagging filter after refresh.
- Fixed image overlay font option on smaller resolution monitors
