Data Base / ViLab

The first step in any image processing is always transferring a colour photo into digital data. A digitized colour image normally consists of 1024 by 860 pixels, each with 24 bits of colour depth. Non compressed these take up to 2 megabyte of disk space. In industrial applications with frequent measurements (e.g. high throughput screening HTS)very high loads of data can accumulate in very short time - so much data ordinary computer systems cannot handle this amount. Therefore, LemnaTec provides a complete system solution with ready configured database server and RAID hard disk controller (19"). Only this guarantees storing, refinding and most important: data safety with backup systems for all these enormous amounts of data.
Another of LemnaTec’s developments concerning databases is our Virtual Laboratory”. The Virtual Laboratory was consequently derived from the handling of databases in the field of biotesting. If you work in LemnaTec’s Virtual Laboratory, the database is physically present on LemnaTec’s database servers to which, as a registered client, you have access through a web interface. There you can compare your results with other tests done by the community of users and researchers in the field and store your one standardized results of biotesting and so increase the volume of the important statistic background in biotesting more and more in every session. But not only results can be handled in the Virtual Laboratory, working in this routine the user might employ on his side of the biotest procedure only the simplest machine without local intelligence to collect his testdata. Then he has these raw data handled, analysed and statistically evaluated in LemnaTec’s servers, providing him with the results through the web, giving him best opinion and validity and finally adding his experiences likewise to the statistic background of the scientific community.
Of course, there is no care about software and updates in the Virtual Laboratory because all the programs do their work on the main server only. This reduces the costs of biotesting enormously because the user can do without the highend processing power and memory advanced image processing and modern biostatistics need. So, in the Virtual Laboratory biotesting becomes available even for smallest labs and occasional users.
