RGB images have always been an afterthought in Micro-Manager. No more, there now is full support, including White Balancing: nicost.github.io/microscope-t...

Development of Micro-Manager code has accelerated quite a bit with availability of the new generation of AI coding tools (and the need to provide functionality for microscopes in our core at UCSF). Follow these developments here: nicost.github.io/microscope-t...

One of the difficulties in developing code for microscopes is to get access to the equipment. So, wouldn't it be nice to have emulators? Turns out that AI is really good at converting documentation into an emulator: nicost.github.io/microscope-t...

Some Micro-Manager device adapters are not included in the installer. That can cause problems when the device API changes. When the device adapter vendor does not release a new version you can try the following work-around: nicost.github.io/microscope-t...

Just had the pleasure to experiment with a camera targeting the astronomy market, but offering great value for microscopy. Cooled, low noise (<1.5 e read-noise), high QE cameras that work with Micro-Manager can be bought for ~$1k: nicost.github.io/microscope-t...
