Summary: Deconvolution microscopy has historically been painfully slow. The early vendors were:
- Scanalytics (Carrington and Fay), commercialized to try to sell expensive, specialized array processors made by CSPI (the CSPI box likely had less computing power than a first gen smartphone).
- Applied Precision (Sedat …

Light Microscopy Reflection Focusing Cells and Coverglass 20150520Wed
Many light microscopes have the capability of using camera based brightfield, phase contrast, or fluorescence to find the most contrasty specimen focus. When I worked for UIC (1992-1997) we offered this with a combination of Ludl MAC2000 controller, Z-drive, video card thingy, and video camera (most customers at the time used analog video cameras).
Many automated light microscopes now have clever -- and pricey -- autofocus systems based on an NIR LED structured illumination reflecting light off the bottom of the coverglass.
I encourage a simpler approach - my hardware details are …

Tattletales and T-Bow Update 20141018
http://works.bepress.com/gmcnamara/63
Tattletales is my concept to multiplex fluorescent protein biosensors ("Tattletales", which is also the overall concept name) and multicolor FP reporters ("T-Bow" for Rainbow T-cells and tumor cells) to study the physiology of live cells.
These are based on:
1. LacI-GFP :: LacO operator synthetic tandem repeat array (Robinett et al 1996 JCB, Fig 4A, http://jcb.rupress.org/content/135/6/1685.full.pdf )
2. the plethora of fluorescent protein biosensors - see page 1 of this "63" download site.
3. the many colors, and combinations of colors (CY11.5, CyPet-YPet 90% FRET, simple color combination fusions, Steven Vogel's "V6" and "V8" …

Robert Murphy's TypIC (typical cell Chooser,
http://murphylab.web.cmu.edu/services/TypIC/
now superseded by PSLID and SLIF
http://murphylab.web.cmu.edu/services/ ), was a "game changer" for me with respect to cell shape analysis. Rather than trying to compute the average of (say) a triangle and a pentagon ... which might result in a square, or a rectange, or some bizarre quadrilateral ... R.M. advocated using the median. OK, in a 2 member dataset this would result in averaging the two shapes (if use the standard way to calculate median of even number datasets), but this could be avoided …
