KEY FEATURES
Precision in resolution assessment
Our USAF 1951 resolution target sets the standard, providing resolution up to group 8. Each group features a series of meticulously designed vertical or horizontal lines, offering a reliable means to estimate the resolution of your optical system with unmatched precision.
Models Variety
Our resolution test targets come up in a wide range of options, to address different applications, including multi-modal ones.
Whether you are looking for assessment of specular reflection, fluorescence or Raman, we have got you covered.
Enhanced alignment capabilities
Unlock the potential of biophotonics multimodal imaging with our targets featuring alignment crosswires in each sub-group. These crosswires not only facilitate distortion evaluation but also ensure seamless overlaying of images for comprehensive analysis.
Advanced Point Spread Function (PSF)
BioPixS targets are equipped with circular apertures, each with a diameter matching the linewidth of elements within the group. This strategic design allows for the evaluation of your imaging system’s resolution, providing insights into the point spread function for optimal performance.
Maximum Contrast with Triple Coated Chrome
Elevate your imaging experience with our resolution targets, featuring a proprietary triple coating of chrome that achieves an optical density (OD) greater than 5. This unparalleled contrast ensures optimal visibility and clarity, setting the stage for precise and accurate measurements.
Integrated Ruler for Seamless Calibration
Make pixel resolution measurements and sample distance calibration a breeze with the integrated ruler on our test targets. Unlike traditional Ronchi rulings, our ruler combines (1, 10, 100 lines/mm) in a cohesive design. Markings provide ease in measuring distances, eliminating the need for manual line counting and ensuring unparalleled accuracy.
Accelerate the development of your biophotonics using BioPixS imaging target phantoms. Performance assessment is made simple by providing all tools in one place!
What are resolution test targets?
Resolution targets, also known as test charts or test patterns, are standardized patterns designed to assess the resolving power or resolution of imaging systems. These targets consist of various elements, such as lines, grids, and patterns, with specific spatial frequencies and contrasts. By capturing images of these targets with an imaging system, you can evaluate how well the system can distinguish between closely spaced details and lines.
Uses and significance of resolution test targets
- Quality Assessment: One of the primary uses of resolution targets is to assess the quality and capabilities of imaging systems. Whether it’s a camera, microscope, scanner, or other optical
device, capturing an image of a resolution target provides a quantitative way to evaluate how fine details are captured.
- Calibration: Resolution targets are also used for calibration purposes. They help in calibrating imaging systems to ensure that they are operating at their optimal performance. This is crucial
in fields like microscopy, where accurate imaging of cellular structures and microorganisms is essential.
- Comparative Analysis: Resolution targets enable comparative analysis of different imaging systems. By capturing images of the same resolution target using different devices, you can compare
their resolving powers and choose the most suitable one for your needs.
- Lens Testing: In optics, resolution targets are used to test and characterize lenses. The ability of a lens to accurately reproduce fine details is a critical
factor in its quality assessment.
- Industrial Applications: Resolution targets find applications in fields like manufacturing and quality control. They are used to test the performance of printing equipment, displays, and other visual systems.
