bioView Portable was developed as an Open Source and cross-platform piece of software that is specially designed for biologists in order to allows them to visualize EM, Confocal, etc. imagery.
It provides access from the remote controller that simplifies usage of the very large screens e.g. 8000x4800 pixels composed by many monitors. Allows on-the-fly automatic and manual enhancements (levels, brightness, equalization) for large images, dynamic enhancement of visible areas, smooth zoom.
All the enhancements are performed with original image data which is converted to display dynamic range on the fly.
Here are some key features of "bioView Portable":
· Cross-platform with binaries for Windows, Mac, Linux
· Reads many bio image and video formats
· Reads meta-data from BioRad PIC, TIFF, Metamorph STK (uncompressed and LZW compressed), Fluoview TIFF, Carl Zeiss LSM 5, PSIA TIFF, Nanoscope II/III
· On-the-fly visualization (mapping/enhancement) of multi-channel data
