ZEN core Image Analysis Software
From materials research and development to industrial quality control and assurance, more and more materials
laboratories are utilizing the advantages of digital microscopy. Carl Zeiss is driving this process with solutions that
are continually setting new standards. A major component is ZEN core, the preferred image analysis software for the
microscopist. With its unique modular architecture, it is equally suited for both newcomers and advanced users.
It features seamless integration between camera and microscope for all imaging and analysis needs.
Why Consider ZEN core?
Integration with Zeiss Microscope and Camera –
With each objective change, the magnification is captured
and scalings are applied automatically (encoded
microscopes). All data such as magnification, camera
exposure and bit depth are tagged on snapped images.
Functionality – Zeiss gives users complete control over
the system (camera, software and microscope) without
using third party components, drivers, etc. Because Zeiss
designs and manufactures all the components, they are
designed to work together, seamlessly.
Support – Allied has image analysis experts to answer
IA questions. Between Zeiss and Allied, users have access
to two organizations for maximum support.
Versatility – A workflow can be designed to implement
tasks easily and repeatedly. For advanced users,
toolbars and macros can be customized to fit their needs.
Image Formats – ZEN core supports importing and
exporting of most standard file formats. Its proprietary ZVI
file retains image properties: calibration, brightness,
contrast, gamma, user definable comments, keywords,
date and more.
Panoramic image tiling allows
simple capturing and stitching
of multiple images to make
one large common image.
Z-Stack/Extended Focus acquires and
combines images from multiple focal
planes to create a single sharp image.
Features:
Measurement of lines, angles, arcs, circles, area,
perimeter and more

The Zeiss line of Axiocam digital cameras offers seamless integration with ZEN core software, providing full control
over all camera functions including exposure, white balance, shade correction and image orientation. ZEN core
software is provided with each Axiocam. It may be installed on an unlimited number of computers so that if images
need text/annotation or further measurements, these tasks can be performed without the use of the main image capture
station. It also allows viewing of raw ZVI image files by anyone, similar to how Adobe Acrobat Reader is used to view
PDF files.
