VCS
Super resolutions model
VCS upgrade X-Light V2 to experience the full 3Dsuper-resolution of structured illumination microscopy
Confocal upgrade
Lateral super-resolution
Super-resolution sectioning


描述
VCS (VideoConfocal super-resolution) module is a new system developed as an add-on for the X-light V2.
Using an approach based on super-resolution patents from Pisa CNR (which assume the 2-dimensional scan of the sample with a pinhole pattern and several algorithms application), CrestOptics-VCS enhance 3D resolution of the standard light microscope.
Parallel calculation is implemented exploiting CUDA technology for a very fast processing time.
The full system X-Light V2 + VCS is thought to work in three configurations:
- Widefield mode
- Confocal mode
- Super-resolution mode
