Frequently asked questions
General
The devices are easily installed on premises, accessing and pumping the sample into the capillary. The data is stored on the cloud and further processed with our algorithms providing Software as a Service (SaaS) - Analysis as a Service.
Only internet connectivity and electricity are required for uninterrupted 24/7 monitoring, enabling early detection of changes or potential contamination events.
The device detects particles ranging from 500 nm up to several hundred micrometers, with higher ranges achievable depending on sample type and optical configuration.
This broad detection window allows the analysis of diverse particle populations, from microorganisms to larger aggregates or debris.
The Hollometer uses image-based holographic microscopy to detect and quantify particles in liquid samples. Any object larger than approximately 500 nm that passes through the sample capillary and scatters light will be detected.
The Hollometer can measure concentrations ranging from individual particles to dense suspensions, with the upper limit depending on the capillary geometry, sample transparency, and the scattering characteristics of the particles.
Our software has been successfully trained to recognize and count microorganisms such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and yeast based on their holographic signatures/fingerprints.
We continue expanding our AI training database to include additional bacterial strains, particularly those relevant for water quality monitoring and industrial production environments.
The Hollometer measures approximately 25 cm × 25 cm × 10 cm and weighs around 2 kg, making it comparable in size to a shoebox.
Its compact and lightweight design allows for easy handling and straightforward on-site installation.
