Image Capture
Nebula’s interface has been designed specifically for microscopy, and is easy to use for everyone from novices and experts. Its simple hardware setup and intuitive design can turn complicated systems into elegant tools, maximizing the usability of complex equipment.
Designed with OME TIFF support in mind, data and metadata captured with Nebula can be easily transported and read by virtually any software. It can be seamlessly imported into ImageJ (FIJI) or a wide variety of analysis packages, from AI tools to application-specific solutions.
Control
As a true 3rd party software developer, Starlyte is not brand locked by any hardware manufacturer. Enjoy support for an extremely wide variety of hardware providers. Contact us for a full list of supported equipment.
Multidimensional acquisition including timelapse, Z-stack, multi-color, multi-XY positioning, and tiling experiments are made easy with Starlyte’s elegant interface.
Starlyte supports true parallel motion across multiple physical devices. No more waiting for one wheel to move at a time! This simultaneous operation maximizes speed for complex experiments.
Applications
Research - Nebula is designed with quantitative imaging in mind, making it the ideal tool for scientific research. Nebula is ideal for imaging in the fields of live cellular biology, pathology, neuroscience, physiology, genetics, chemistry, biochemistry, and physics.
Advanced Techniques - Microscopy goes beyond fluorescence. Nebula software natively supports advanced techniques including spinning disk confocal, TIRF, FRET, DIC, and super resolution microscopy.
Industrial - Quantitative documentation is the first step to improvement. Nebula can help streamline workflows for machine vision, quality assurance, failure analysis, research and development, or any process requiring automated imaging.
