Active Illumination (AI) describes a rapidly evolving range of optical techniques with an increasing impact on scientific enquiry and experimentation. All AI techniques target optical radiation at user-defined region(s) of the specimen and use optical imaging to observe, and often to measure, the impact of the “perturbation”.
Utilizes Digital Mirror Device technology to simultaneously illuminate multiple regions of interest. Can be used for zero time lag illumination whilstimaging the sample.

Diffraction limited illumination from a pulsed dye-laser enables photoactivation or ablation across a wide range of wavelengths.
FRAPPA provides a unique design for galvo-scanned photobleaching and activation. Its in-line configuration provides by-pass and scanningmodes.
A broad range of light sources, including ultrabright Laser, Xenon and Hg lamps, are compatible with our Active Illumination devices.
Active Illumination products require precision synchronization. This can be performed through Andor's iQ software, Metamorph or NISElements.
