SmartPIV is an application for the visual analysis of current and past particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements.

What can SmartPIV be used for?

SmartPIV is a low-cost and user-friendly alternative to current PIV systems. Its analysis interface is simple and can be used by any user to obtain results for both instantaneous and time-averaged velocity measurements. SmartPIV is the first application that allows the user to easily visualize the results of the analysis and compare them with other data. The application is also capable of displaying current and past PIV measurements and their development over time.

The application is a tool for hands-on training in the domain of thermodynamics at universities and beyond.
