Microscopy Imaging Software

SPOT 5.0 Basic Software

The SPOT Basic software is a comprehensive but straighforward interface with features designed for microscopy imaging. Its interface includes preconfigured settings for different microscope illumination types so that the camera is optimized for your specific use. Image previewing is enhanced with the magnifier and focus gauge in the SPOT Basic live window interface. It provides user-friendly reports, reticles, measurements, calibration marks, time lapse, annotations, and automatic white balance features that make it simple to acquire impressive images.

SPOT 5.0 Advanced Software

The SPOT Advanced microscopy software expands your imaging toolkit with a customizable database for archival, merging and pseudo-coloring of monochrome fluorescence channels, custom dialog boxes, variables and taskbars, macro scripting, live histogram, focus drift viewer for time lapse acquisition, image metadata, automatic background subtraction, external trigger options, and many other useful features. Optional modules for peripheral device control, quantitative imaging, extended third party software interfacing, and extended depth of focus processing can be added to the SPOT 5.0 Advanced software to support specialized applications.

MetaMorph Image Analysis Software

MetaMorph is designed for demanding quantitative needs in research applications. Its toolbox includes cell counting, deconvolution, image stitching, ratio and calcium imaging, FRET/FRAP, and multi-dimensional imaging. MetaMorph controls SPOT cameras through a custom driver and can also control other manufacturer's cameras and peripherals.
