Capture or open
Take a frame from a DirectShow camera, or open an image already on disk. Either way the measurement works on the source pixels, not on what the screen happens to be showing.

Measure what the camera can see.
Multitek Measuret turns a camera or microscope image into a calibrated measurement: real distances, angles and radii in millimetres or microns, checked against your tolerances and printed into a report you can hand to an auditor.

What it does
Five things, done properly.
Measuret is deliberately narrow. It captures an image, establishes what a pixel is worth, lets you construct the geometry a drawing actually calls out, judges it against a tolerance, and prints the evidence.
Calibrate honestly
Set how much real length one pixel represents — separately for X and Y, because most optical set-ups are not perfectly square. Save it per objective and recall it by name.
Calibration →Construct and measure
Distances, angles and radii, plus the guide lines, offsets and datums you need to make a measurement mean something. Then relationships between the shapes you drew.
Every tool →Check against nominal
Import a checklist of expected measurements with min/max limits. Arm a row, take the measurement, and it is recorded against that row before moving on to the next.
Reading tolerance →The workspace
One image, one document, one revision at a time.
Every measurement is committed against the image's own coordinates. Zooming, panning and window size change what you see; they never change what was measured. That separation is why a reading taken today still means the same thing when the report is opened next year.
- Measurements are authored in source-image coordinates, never screen coordinates
- Undo and redo across the whole measurement history
- Overlays export exactly as seen, at full source resolution
- Works on Windows 10 22H2 or later, x64
Measurement tools
The tools a drawing actually asks for.
Six ways to take a distance, three ways to take an angle or a radius, nine construction and drawing tools, and five relationships between the shapes you have drawn.
Reporting
A report someone else can check.
One A4 portrait sheet, in Excel and in PDF. Your letterhead, the part and test information, the measured image at full page width, and the results table underneath it.
01
The image is the evidence
The overlay is composed at source resolution, so the printed report shows exactly where each reading was taken.
02
Columns you choose
Sr, Colour, Description, Type, Value, Unit, Tol Min, Tol Max, Result, Margin and Remarks. Excel and PDF cannot drift apart — they read the same column policy.
03
Honest verdicts
Pass Fail Indeterminate — a row that was never measured, or has no limits, says so rather than quietly passing.
Knowledge
The measurement theory, written for engineers.
Genuine explainers about image-based measurement — what a calibration really claims, where accuracy is lost, and what an auditor will ask you.
Calibration
What "mm per pixel" really means
A calibration is a claim about your whole optical set-up, not a number you type once and forget. Here is how to make that claim honestly.
CalibrationWhy non-square pixels break naive measurement
If X and Y do not scale equally, a circle is an ellipse in pixels — and a single scale factor will quietly mis-measure every diagonal.
OpticsMagnification vs resolution vs accuracy
Three different things, routinely confused, and only one of them is what your customer is actually buying.
