You are invited to attend a live, interactive, web-based instructional seminar:
========================================================== Improved Stereoscopy Using Extended Depth-of-Field Processing Presented By: Nicholas Beavers, Media Cybernetics ========================================================== Details are below. Connection lines are limited, so reserve yours now. There is no charge to participate in this on-line seminar. When ===================== September 23, 2008 Tuesday at 1:30 PM (Pacific time) Duration: About 45 minutes, plus questions and answers Pre-register (required) at: http://www.magworldwide.com/index.php Details: ===================== Stereomicroscopic observation of small organisms (such as drosophila and C. elegans), electronic circuits, and micro-machined components often requires the user to focus up and down through the z-axis to visualize the entire object. At each focus position, some structure is in optimal focus while structures above and below appear blurry. Although acquiring through-focus image stacks with stereo microscopes is becoming more commonplace, observing individual images makes it almost impossible to visualize and understand the overall structure of the imaged object. A powerful technique known as "Extended Depth of Field Processing" allows for the automatic "collapsing" of a through-focus set of blurry images into a single very high resolution image of the entire specimen. This allows elucidation of structure that is not evident when observing individual planes and enables the determination of relationships between them. Attendees of this live, interactive webinar will see how various specimens can be imaged, aligned, and processed. Have an image set you'd like to see processed? Send a sequence of TIF images (compressed into a ZIP file, please) to: [hidden email] and we'll try to show it to you during the web seminar! Bring your questions to this live, interactive web-based seminar. Provided free of charge, this webinar is sponsored by MAG, the Microimaging Applications Group. MAG is a group of imaging companies who work together to provide an unparalleled range of microimaging solutions to science and industry. About the presenter ===================== Nicholas Beavers is an Applications Specialist with Media Cybernetics, providers of the InVivo, Image Pro and AutoQuant families of image acquisition, processing, and analysis software. Nick has extensive hands-on experience in the configuration and programming of complex image acquisition systems for performing quantitative live-cell studies. |
