CrysTBox 2.0 coming soon...
New CrysTBox to be released early next year. Among other things, commercial version will be available. Before the e-shop is launched, you can check the list of new features.
There have already been preliminary sales. What do first custommers say?
"It is a quantum leap for us."
— Wolrd's leading industrial company which prefers to keep their CrysTBox advantage secret for now.
Artificial intelligence and interactivity in your service
New technologies are changing the game in many fields, crystallography being no exception. CrysTBox is a suite of computer tools for automated analysis of TEM images (HRTEM and diffraction) and for crystallographic visualization. It is designed to put the power of modern technologies in the hands of crystallographers and material scientists to boost their research.
And what do you need to accelerate your research?
To have more time for important things To get more accurate results Squeeze maximum out of my data To understand how things work To see the meaning in tons of dataIt is interactive graphics which takes you from data to the meaning
Unlike human, CrysTBox takes into account tens of reflections at once
Easier cases in one click, hard ones still easier with assisted analysis
Image processing can reveal what stayed in the shadows
See, touch, play, understand...
For all - experts as well as non-crystallographers
Expert users will enjoy faster, more accurate and repeatable analysis than what can be achieved manually. Assisted analysis can help with most difficult images. Advanced features can also be helpful in performing non-trivial experimental techniques.
Thanks to its automation and interactivity, CrysTBox acts as a cross-disciplinary bridge. Even as a non-crystallographer, you can achieve accurate results and see theit meaning in the material. Therefore, CrysTBox is ideal for interdisciplinary projects and education.
All around the world
There is no information about any user in Antarctica, space or moon. Otherwise, the users got CrysTBox into 100 countries. Thank you all!

If you want to download CrysTBox, please fill in this application form. CrysTBox is free for educational and scientific use.
Due to our MATLAB license, the suite must not be used for commercial purposes or by commercial subjects. For more see CrysTBox license.
The installers are built for Windows. Installation should be quite straight-forward. Still, the whole procedure is described in in this installation guide together with some tips for potential troubleshooting.
Due to the use of MATLAB Compiler Runtime, approximate hardware requirements are: 1GB RAM, 2GB of a disk space, 1GB graphic memory is recommended.
