SimplePCI Core




SimplePCI software combines high-performance image processing, analysis, flexibility and ease of use, all at sensible pricing. Throughout the application, careful use of Multi-threading and implementation of Intel’s MMX instructions accelerates image-processing operations many times. Data documents contain images and data for convenient processing, analysis, and allow direct interaction between images and data. Image sequences from multi-site XYZ time-lapses are conveniently stored in data documents for easy display and measurement. Presentation of images benefits from advanced merging techniques, including adjustable contrast and tinting, to provide realistic images.

SimplePCI extends across many applications throughout life, physical and material sciences, making it the ideal solution.

SimplePCI includes image processing with monochrome and color threshold or graphical drawing tools to identify objects for analysis. Analyze thousands of objects quickly, with data presentation in a list, spreadsheet, statistical summary or histogram.
  • Multi-threaded support for Windows XP/2000
  • Multiple processor support
  • Image filters include, smooth, median, Laplacian, Sobel, Kirsch
  • Define objects with monochrome/color threshold, or graphical drawing tools
  • Create custom measurements with built-in equation editor
  • Data presentation in 2D/3D graphs, tables or spreadsheets


  • SimplePCI supports load and import of image sequences with storage in a versatile data document. Multi-dimensional viewer makes data documents ideal for time-lapse replay of multi-site XYZ locations over time.
  • Imprint images with time, or position for dynamic viewing of time-lapse
  • Create a montage, min/max or 3D projection from image sequences
  • Merge multiple images with color tint and bright-field images
  • Add text, arrows, scale bars in images or movies
  • Automatic XY registration for multiple color components
  • Export images or AVI movies from an image sequence


  • SimplePCI accepts multiple formats for loading images. Image enhancement, including pseudo color, image overlay, or separation is one click away. Co-localization shown in a scattergram.
  • Load or save from wide range of image formats, TIF, JPEG, BMP
  • Adjustable look-up tables
  • Plot an image as a 3D isometric plot
  • View image pixel values, histograms and 2-color scattergrams
  • Intensity data from freehand draw lines
  • Merge multiple fluorescence images on bright-field images
