MagScope is a Python-based application for live data acquisition and analysis in magnetic tweezers microscopy.
- Fast, high-throughput, and high-resolution
- GUI - includes a clean simple GUI (Graphical User Interface)
- Demo - Launches by default with a simulated camera so you can try it without microscope hardware connected
- Automation - Create simple Python scripts to automate data-collection and motor movement for long/complex experiments.
- XYZ-Lock - Enable XY- and/or Z-Lock to keep beads centered and in focus for long experiments
- Customizable - Easily add your lab's hardware and implement custom features
- CPU or GPU tracking of beads via MagTrack
