like celigo
what is special about these guys? can we use the same API as cytation/image express/microscopes in general? seems to me it’s the same in terms of objectives/filters/stage xyz
the hardware is optimized for different purposes, but it’s like different models cars maybe?
The celigo uses a scanning light rather than moving the plate, which means a whole plate can be captured much faster than a typical imager. Important for immunology workflows where scientists want to measure cells in a plate that stay alive and in culture after measurement, like for live-cell tumor killing assays.
The front-end could be the same as a typical pylabrobot imager, as long as the difference in stage vs light movement is noted.
interesting
but I think in terms of the api it probably wont make a difference / that is a safe starting assumption?
I believe so.
