I understand your question better, but people don't know that it is preferable to use a monochrome camera for single channel fluorescence.  Fluorescence is in color, so they ask to use a color camera.  This is obvious to them.  Measuring intensity and then pseudocoloring it?  Is that legal?  How would an app handle this?

Thanks all for your answers.

I take your points -and I specially agree that people should talk *before* doing the experiment and tell us what the biological problem is- but I think you have overshot the question:

I have a small set of microscopes, each with advantages and unique capabilities (colour or greyscale cameras, incubation chamber, fluorescence...).  When users come and see me, I know which microscope to direct them to.  The app would be a first guide to *my* microscopes, not to the whole of microscopy.

Obviously, it will also tell people to come and talk...

Sincerely,

Matthieu

Dear all,

I've been repetitively asked by some users if I could build a Web app that would guide them through a series of questions (like a personality test) to the ideal microscope(s) for their experiment.  Does anyone have experience with this?  Which app have you used?

Obviously, I'd rather they come and talk but maybe I'm just scary :-)

Sincerely,

Matthieu
