PROBES
uScope has sophisticated real-time probe capabilities that allow users to monitor image
properties like color, intensity, variation and video properties like inferred motion (e.g., particle
image velocimetry) in real time. These real-time measurements can be recorded to disk and can
trigger real-
time actions. uScope can support as many probes as your computer’s processor can
handle.
The three types of probes that can be made in uScope are the Velocity (PIV) probes, Intensity
probes, and Particle Counting Probes.
6.1
Velocity (PIV) probes
uScope software makes it easy to create probes to monitor flow characteristics. Each probe can
have its own properties; probes are almost always square, though it is possible to extend the
probe in one direction to increase signal-to-noise ratio along that axis.
TIP
:
When learning how to use uScope’s PIV probes it is useful to start with a stable particle
flow, or a movie of a stable flow.
