We describe a time-lapse image digitization videomicroscope system that uses a mini computer as the main processing unit in conjunction with a large peripheral memory for storing multiple digitized images. The advantage of the system lies in its ability to facilitate acquisition and analysis of data relative to size, location and optical density of cells and cellular structure using elementary image processing techniques. This system can also potentially control microscope stage movement, enabling acquisition of larger amounts of data per time-lapse experiment.
我们描述了一种延时图像数字化视频显微镜系统,该系统使用微型计算机作为主要处理单元,并结合大容量外部存储器来存储多个数字化图像。该系统的优势在于能够利用基本图像处理技术,便于获取和分析与细胞及细胞结构的大小、位置和光密度相关的数据。该系统还可能控制显微镜载物台的移动,从而在每次延时实验中获取更多的数据。
