One of Scandium's distinguishing features is how easy it can be expanded and used in combination with Olympus Soft Imaging Solution's own highly specialized software extensions. Each of these is focused on fulfilling users’ requirements for their application. The basic version is solution oriented and software extensions – called Solutions – extend Scandium's range of functions for solving specific scanning electron microscopy tasks.
The Scandium Solution Automation provides a universally expandable application environment for fully automatic control of motorized stages and quantitative analysis processes.
