# Software Service

After more than 20 years of development work, many algorithms, drivers and SDKs have matured and are gradually finding their way into Optp's plug-ins or customer applications.

#### **Custom software development**

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/bildschirmfoto_2022-07-12_um_23.09.48_2-300x170.png)Opto's software toolbox 'Fortress' lets you quickly develop customized software solutions for motion control, light control, autofocus, object tracking, memory management, and big data analysis. We program with Vision Builder NI, Open CV, and C++ to select your best solution. For customers who integrate imaging modules into their applications, we support the development of specific GUIs or image-processing solutions.

## DATA & Network Management

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/navi_klein_data-management.jpg)With Opto's software framework Fortress, they can easily plan and develop new challenges around image data management and image processing. With over 20 years of experience in custom software development, much knowledge has flowed into Opto's data structure, from which they can now react quickly to the new requirements of our OEM customers. Also, for our Imaging Modules, new software solutions, so-called plug-ins, are constantly being created in this way. This allows their users to be optimized and opens up new application areas.

## Image Analysis

Over the last 40 years, Opto has solved many market-driven challenges that they can easily integrate into our Opto Framework to deliver now "Plug and play" Job Modules for you. ![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/sw_sw-dev_image-analysis_seperator-300x48.jpg)

Here are some solutions that can merge easily into new Sensors for you.

#### **Colony Counting**

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/bildanalyse-bakterienkolonie.jpg)Counting and Analysing colony growth in Petri dishes request fast Image Acquisition in the highest resolution. Differentiation of colonies in size and gray levels and the differentiation of colony families are other demands besides statistical DATA mining. Often mechanical positioning, Autofocus or other Automation has to be applied to the Application. All can be realized from the Opto Software framework and Imaging Module line. All out of one Hand.

#### **Quality control of pharmaceutical products**

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/tabletten_zaehlen-300x191.jpg)During drug development and the production of pharmaceutical products, many quality controls have to take place.

- Measurement of size and roundness of pills
- Detection and verification of correct colour
- Analysis of the homogeneity of the blister pack
- Classification of defects and anomalies

#### **Detection of impurities in transparent materials**

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/image_analysis_-_material.jpg)The Quality control of plastic strips used in the fabrication of high-tension electric cable requires:

- Detecting holes and defects
- Determining position, level and classification of impurities
- Automatic Anomalies detection (Stress, colour,..)
- Statistical analysis of the results, data export

#### Automated Cell Counting

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/bildschirmfoto_2020-07-16_um_21.37.39.png)To analyze cells, it is necessary to control them where they occur—On-Chip Level, Microfluidic Channels, Petri dishes or well plates. We offer the right Image Acquisition Tool and can assist with special Software features for your application.

- Tracking in real-time the morphology and movement of cells
- Classification and Identifying cells by specific Fluorescence Marker
- Automated Counting of cells
- Including cell Analysis into existing Microfluidic setups

## Deep Learning & AI

![](https://opti-tech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/bildschirmfoto_2020-07-11_um_19.50.53-300x226.png)To create an AI solution, it is always essential to work closely with the customer to learn and interpret the products to be analyzed. So working AI solutions are always project-based.

That is why Opto uses existing Software Packages from partner companies in its solino Interface design to set up CNN\* and Deep Learning.

Opto wants to cooperate with Companies to make solino their AI tool for

- Predictive Maintenance
- Quality Inspection and Assurance
- Manufacturing Process Automation

Here are some preferred partners:

\* (Convolutional Neural Network)

Computational Imaging means extracting additional information out of standard Images.

Computational Imaging needs a deep understanding of the application. Opto often only assists as an extended development partner.

- solino is Opto's algorithm for digitizing the Human Perception of products ([LINK](https://www.opto.de/en/software/solino/))
- Super Resolution Effects are possible
- For Computational Microscopy, our Imaging Modules are perfect
