Oxygen Microscope and Oxygen Inclusion 3.3

What is new:

  • New Export and Import of DMC files

    It is especially useful for work with fancy colored cuts. In the beginning of optimization process, a preliminary solution is allocated in the Oxygen. Then allocated diamond from the Oxygen is passed into the DiamCalc Software for analysing and optimizing its colour.

    If, in the course of operation with a polished diamond in the DiamCalc software, its optical behavior was improved, then the modified cut saved in the DMC format that can be imported back into its original Oxygen solution. In the Oxygen a final optimization of polished diamond is performed (finding maximum of weight for obtained proportions).

  • More precise definition of diamond density
  • Reports update
  • Linked appraiser. Update active appraiser
  • Smoother lighting control
  • Bugfix

Oxygen Microscope and Oxygen Inclusion 3.2

What is new:

  • Automatic creating 3D models of cavities
    New automatic cavity’s allocation tool allows creating surface’s cavities that have not been detected by standard Shadow and LM methods and do it automatically. The new tool contains easy-to-use and convenient interface, works fast and accurate. After 3d model of cavity is created it will be cut off from the 3D model of rough diamond. So 3d model of rough became more precise now.
  • Improvements of autoexposure algorithm
    The autoexposure algorithm reduces flickering for short exposures and offers superior image quality due improving of convergence criteria.
  • 64-bit Windows support
    Now M-Box works with 64-bit Windows 7 and 64-bit Windows Vista with new release of Oxygen Microscope.
  • New Polish reports templates are available in the Oxygen Software
    It has the advantages for analyzing girdle asymmetry and removing girdle asymmetry came from Helium Polish.

Stereo Movie Viewer 2.16
Formerly known as Stereo Film Viewer

The Stereo movie viewer allows playing movies and stereo movies in FLM format or series of photos in JPG or BMP formats.

What is new:

  • The new Stereo movie viewer supports playing DiamCalc stereo movies with realistic rendering of inclusions and depth-of-field effect, lens or human eye modelling. At the moment versions of DiamCalc available for download do not support rendering inclusions and export of FLM stereo movies. It is coming on the next versions. But you can see examples of new DC stereo movies here.
  • Support for NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ and 3D Vision™ Pro tecnhology. It allows to watch stereo movies on NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ supported hardware in full-screen and windowed display mode. Windowed mode is supported for NVIDIA® 3D Vision™ Pro with NVIDIA® Quadro® technology.
  • User interface improvements
  • Additional movie visualization options: 50%, 100%, 200% frame scale
  • Added split types:
    • Side by Side - In case of this split type the initial frame is divided in two images, for left and right eye, by vertical line.
    • Frame Shift - In case of this split type the images for left and right eye are presented from the stream of frames with some shift. For movies with rotating objects
    • Over / Under - In case of this split type the initial frame is divided in two images, for left and right eye, by horizontal line.
  • Added Full screen mode
  • Changed names of parameters for stereo movies:
    A to Frame Shift, D to Frame Distance
