autoMicromanager

autoMicromanager is a most useful toolkit designed to enable complete control of a microscopy setup from Labview, Matlab, Scilab, Python, .Net, VB, IgorPro, Mathematica and more. Included is a standalone program for image acquisition and scripting control of a scientific microscope.

The supported hardware is: Leica DMI microscopes Leica DMR microscopes (and DMIRBE) Nikon TE2000 motorized microscope Nikon TI microscope Nikon AZ100 Zoom microscope Olympus IX81 Zeiss CAN-bus (not CAN29) compatible microscopes (Axiovert 200m, Axioplan2) Zeiss CAN29-bus compatible microscopes (AxioObserver) Cameras from ABS Gesellschaft für Automatisierung, Bildverarbeitung, Software GmbH Jena Andor EM cameras Firewire cameras that adhere to the iidc1394 specs (Mac and Linux only) Virtual, emulated equipment for testing

Hamamatsu cameras (through DCAM library) Roper/Photometrics cameras Supports all PCO cameras (Sensicam, Pixelfly and others) Stanford Photonics cameras QImaging cameras PCO/Cooke Sensicam camera
