Revision as of 09:53, 9 December 2011

In the beginning, there was Disco!

coming soon ...


Macroscope:

what

why

capabilites (current and potential)

To build:

parts list and sources

basic structure

custom parts (cam and filter mounts)

camera

filters and leds - chroma...clearance...mention gel filters...

control box

software (link to canon SDK req; starlight express drivers, switch&sense)

etc

Thoughts:

notes

  • Fluorescence shading correction. Divide images by a flat field standard

improvements

  • Better darkfield illumination
  • 3D imaging of fluorescence in transparent volumes using sheet illumination (laser, cylindrical lens, )
