BeamGage® Professional

BeamGage
Pro is an upgrade version of BeamGage-Standard that enables partitioning of the camera output to enable separate analysis of individual beams when multiple beams impinge on the camera simultaneously. This feature is particularly useful when analyzing multiple fibers in a single bundle.

Pro also adds the ability to automate your application by interfacing through .NET controls for imbedded or remote operation and real-time data transfer. Now you can easily control BeamGage using custom or 3rd party application such as LabView.

Measure Your Beam As Never Before:
Ultracal: Essential, or no big deal?
If you want accurate beam measurements, you want Ultracal.
What is Ultracal?
Our patented, baseline correction algorithm helped establish the ISO 11146-3 standard for beam measurement accuracy. The problems with cameras used in beam profile measurements are that the a) baseline, or zero, of the cameras drift with time temperature, and b) include random noise. Ultracal is the only beam profiler algorithm that sets the baseline to “zero”, and, in the center of the noise. (Competitive products use other less sophisticated algorithms that perform a baseline subtraction, but truncate the noise below the "zero" of the baseline. This leaves only a "positive" component, which adds a net value to all beam measurements.)
Try the following on any other beam profiler product to see the inherent error if you don’t use Ultracal.
1.Measure a beam with full intensity on the profiler camera.
2.Insert a ND2 filter (100X attenuation) into the beam and measure it again.
3.Compare the results.
4.The Standard Deviation below is about 3%, which is phenomenal compared to the 100% or more of any beam profiler without Ultracal.
Adding the use of Automatic Aperture improves the accuracy to 1%. (The conditions of this measurement is a camera with a 50dB SNR.)

Beam at full intensity, Width 225um, Std Dev 0.06um Beam attenuated 100X (displayed here in 2D at 16X magnitude zoom), Width 231um, Std Dev 7um
5.You normally don’t make measurements at such a low intensity. But occasionally you may have a drop in intensity of your beam and don’t want to have to adjust the attenuation. Or, you may occasionally have a very small beam of only a few tens of pixels. In both these cases, Ultracal becomes essential in obtaining accurate measurements.
Beam Measurements and Statistics
BeamGage allows you to configure as many measurements as needed to support your work, and comes standard with over 55 separate measurement choices. To distinguish between calculations that are based on ISO standards and those that are not, a graphical ISO logo is displayed next to appropriate measurements. You can also choose to perform statistical calculations on any parameter in the list.

And if BeamGage-Standard does not have the measurement you need the -Enterprise version permits the user to add-in custom calculations. User defined computations are treated just as the standard calculations. These custom results are displayed on the monitor, logged with results, and included on hard copy print-outs as if they were included in the original application.

Unique Features
Power/Energy Calibration
BeamGage has the ability to interface to an Ophir power meter. The BeamGage application will display power/energy readings from select Ophir displays. Pulsed lasers can be synced up to 50Hz. This is the first time in the industry a laser power meter has been married to a laser beam profile system using the Ophir Pulsar USB readout.
BeamMaker; Numerical Beam Profile Generator
BeamGage contains a utility, BeamMaker, that can synthetically generate beam profile data by modeling either Laguerre, Hermite or donut laser beams in various modal configurations. BeamMaker permits the user to model a beam profile by specifying the mode, size, width, height, intensity, angle, and noise content. Once generated the user can then compare the theoretically derived measurements to measurements including experimental inaccuracies produced by the various measurement instruments and environmental test conditions. Users can now analyze expected results and confirm if measurement algorithms will accurately measure the beam even before the experiment is constructed. BeamMaker can help laser engineers, technicians and researchers understand a beam’s modal content by calculating results on modeled beams for a better understanding of real laser beam profiles. BeamMaker is to laser beam analysis as a function generator is to an oscilloscope.

Signal Conditioning for Enhanced Accuracy Spiricon’s patented Ultracal enables more accurate beam measurement and display. Ultracal takes a multi- frame average of the baseline offset of each individual pixel to obtain a baseline accurate to approximately 1/8 of a digital count. This baseline offset is subtracted from each frame, pixel by pixel, to obtain a baseline correction accurate to 1/8 digital count. Spiricon’s Ultracal method retains numbers
  less than zero that result from noise when the baseline is subtracted. Retaining fractional and negative numbers in the processed signal can increase the beam width measurement accuracy by up to 10X over conventional baseline subtraction and clip level methods. Spiricon’s Ultracal conforms to the best method described in ISO 11146-3:2004.
Frame Averaging Up to 256 frames can be averaged for a signal-to-noise ratio, S/N, improvement of up to 16X. (Noise is averaged up to 1/256th [8 fractional bits]) Data is processed and stored in a 32bit format.
Frame Summing Up to 256 frames can be summed to pull very weak signals out of the noise.
  Due to the precise nature of Ultracal baseline setting, (i.e., a retention of both positive and negative noise components) summing of frames can be performed without generating a large offset in the baseline.
Convolution (Adjacent Pixel Averaging) Choice of 5 convolution algorithms for spatial filtering for both display and calculations. Spatial filtering improves the visual S/N.
Beam Maker® Beam Maker is a new feature that allows the user to model both Laguerre-Gaussian and Hermite-Gaussian laser beams in various modal configurations. With these models you have verification and validation tools that allows not only OSI but also the end user to verify BeamGage’s basic beam width measurement algorithms. It can also be used to model laser beams with special input conditions such as signal-to-noise, background offset, and bits per pixel resolution. This allows the user to better understand the accuracy of measurements made under both optimum and adverse conditions. This tool provides the user with a method to validate algorithms againt current ISO standards and methods. It can also be used to validate third party algorithms by making the output data available for use in third party applications.

Trigger, Capture and Synchronization Methods Capture methods are features related to the application while Synchronization methods relate more to the abilities of the specific camera. NOTE: Frame capture rates are determined by many factors and are not guarenteed for any specific operating configuration.
  Trigger modes
  CW - captures continuously, see Continuous below
   Trigger-In from laser: Trigger pulses supplied to the camera
   Strobe-Out to laser: Strobe pulses output from the camera
   Video Trigger: Frame captured and displayed only when the camera sees a signal greater than a user set level
  Capture options
   Capture options are redefined and are approached in a different manner than older products. The items listed below will allow for all of the previous methods but with more flexability than ever before.
   Results Priority: Results priority will slow the capture rate to be in sync with the computational results and display updates.
   Frame Priority: Frame priority will slow results and display updating to insure that frames are collected and stored in the frame buffer as fast as possible. (replaces block mode)
   Stop After: Will collect a set number of frames and then stop (replaces Single-Shot mode)
   Periodic: Will collect frame at a programmed periodic rate.
   Periodic Burst: Will collect frames in a Burst at programmed periodic rates
  Post processing is still available but is done via a different mechanism and is limited to only data file sources.
