San Diego, Ca., USA, 49th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Cell Biology, 6 December 2009 - Andor Technology plc (Andor), a world leader in scientific imaging, spectroscopy solutions and microscopy systems, today announced the launch of their new iQ 1.10 software version. This latest version of Andor’s Live Cell imaging software marks a significant development in terms of performance and flexibility.
iQ 1.10 enables high speed, dual camera, simultaneous acquisition (up to 30 fps) in a single PC and extends the application of Fast Lambda-Z (FLZ) module for tightly synchronized wavelength and Z scanning. FLZ has been integrated with multi-field scans, 3D FRAPPA and Autofocus functionality.
iQ 1.10 dramatically increases scanning flexibility in micro-plates and multi-field modes, supporting montage and Autofocus (PFS, ZDC) at all fields. Simplified Protocol and Channel management improve ease of use with right mouse menus providing the ability to insert, delete and edit all actions within a protocol sequence. ImageDisk performance has been boosted with multi-threading to support simultaneous multi-image streaming and image allocation.
Dr. Mark Browne, Director of Systems Division with Andor Technology said, "This new software version marks a breakthrough in performance for live cell imaging. iQ’s integration of scanning, focus drift compensation and FRAPPA with Fast LZ functionality delivers industry-leading acquisition performance. Further, we have fully integrated our best-in-class interline CCD camera, Clara and now provide full compatibility with Andor Solis SIF files for easier data exchange with iQ. We sincerely hope that the substantial improvements implemented in iQ 1.10 will make the work of live cell researchers more satisfying and productive."
