Algae Analyzers
Overview
- Abnormal water quality issues are increasing in the water source recently due to climate changes
- Issues include taste/odor issues caused by harmful blue-green algae or filter blockage due to diatoms
- Real-time algae monitoring system that detects abnormal water quality in the water source early and respond in advance is needed
- Algae monitoring device that can supplement the existing microscope counting (Water Pollution Process Test Criteria, ES 04705. 1b) is needed

Principles
of analysis
- Depositing specimen for algae analysis in S-R Chamber and obtaining images of individual cell in the chamber according to the movement of X-Y axis module
- Extracting images of individual algae through 10X optical lens and hi-resolution CMOS camera
- Comparing the algae with the database according to its morphological characteristics to determine its species and analyzing the cell count
- Differentiating specifications between species through deep learning-based learning
Equipment
features
- Automated S-R chamber microscope counting (Water Pollution Process Test Criteria, ES 04705. 1b)
- Loaded with automated Z-axis focusing for improved clarity of algae images
- Obtains the entire image of S-R chamber through X-Y axis movement
- Accurate data available regardless of the proficiency of the analyzer
- Improved accuracy of analysis based on big data
