Uncertainty Calculator vs VisionWorks

Uncertainty Calculator evaluates the error propagation throughout the mathematical expressions comprised of variables of uncertain value. The application allows input of up to three value-error pairs (A, B and C), that can be used as a parameters in the final expression. Error values should be provided in absolute (100 +/- 5) or in relative format, the latter should appear in percent format (100 +/- 5%). The evaluated expression can include numerous functions, that provided by row of the appropriate buttons. Components and functions can be added directly to the expression field by pressing the corresponding buttons. To encompass expression into the preset formula, select the expression and press the corresponding formula button. Particular attention should be paid to placing brackets to avoid equation ambiguity. The application deals with independent, random errors. So if this is a case never use A + A, but rather 2*A and never A*A*A but rather A^3! Obviously, different parameters can be combined in any way (A+B or C *A^2 .. is perfectly fine). Angles for trigonometric functions can be provided in degrees or radians, and that should be reflected by setting a yellow button to "DEG" or "RAD". Bear in mind the importance of units in any of calculations! Implementation Examples: 1.The charge passing through an electrical circuit is defined by: Q = I * t, where I is the current and t is the time. Calculate the total charge value when a current of 0.15 ± 0.01 A passes through the circuit for 120 ± 1 s: Input: A = 0.15 ± 0.01, B = 120 ± 1 The final expression will be A*B, and press Calculate: The final value will be: 18 ± 1.2 Thus, it can be reported the total charge as 18 C ± 1 C. Important! One should only report as many significant figures as are consistent with estimated error! So the value should be rounded to the rightmost decimal place at which error applies. 2. A ball is tossed straight up into the air with initial speed vo = (4.0± 0.2) m/s. After a time t = (0.60 ± 10%) s, the height of the ball is h = vo*t - 0.5gt^2 = 0.636 m (g = 9.80 m/s^2). What is the value and uncertainty of height? Input: A = vo = 4.0 ± 0.2, and B = t = 0.60 ± 10%, then the final expression should be: A*B – 0.5*9.8*B^2 The final value will be: 0.6 ± 0.4 (meters).

Enjoy the capabilities of our VisionWorks® Touch software on your smartphone by using our new VisionWorks® App. Our new VisionWorks® App is a powerful and user-friendly software that allows the capture and analysis of gel and colony samples through your phone while having full control of the UVP Gel Compact darkroom. You can use your own phone’s camera app to capture an image and then analyze in Visionworks®, or you can use the Visionworks® app to both automatically capture and analyze the image in one simplified workflow. If the VisionWorks® App is used to analyze the image/sample, cloud analysis will be enabled for 1D lanes and bands auto detection, molecular weight calibration, area density analysis, colony counting, and colony classification. The results report will be available for review in the VisionWorks® App and can be shared via email for your convenience. However, if you desire to analyze the image using our computer-based VisionWorks® Touch software, you will only need to export the JPEG image to the computer. Images taken with your phone through the VisionWorks® App, will be stored in JPEG format in the phone gallery. The app and system can be used for the following applications among many others: Colony Counting, DNA (EtBr, GelGreen, GelRed, SYBR Safe, etc.), and protein gel (Stain free gel, Coomassie blue gel, silver stain, etc.) capture and analysis. All of these features, make the VisionWorks® App and UVP Gel Compact, the perfect match for all of your needs.
