Enhance Navigator integration

Easily switch from sample overview images to multi-channel view mode, giving your data spatial context throughout your workflow.

With enhanced Navigator integration, you can set up and perform complex multi-position experiments on a wide range of sample formats using templates for slides, dishes and multi-well plates.

Navigator combined with Adaptive Immersion technology allows you to seamlessly switch from overview images to high-resolution images using immersion objectives, without removing the sample from the stage.

Adaptive Immersion technology

Patented and reliable Adaptive Immersion technology:

  • Employs an embedded sensor to monitor and maintain immersion throughout your experiments.
  • Enables you to use optimum water immersion objectives for live cell experiments under physiologically relevant conditions.  
  • Creates smoother workflows through hassle-free switching to immersion objectives.

Beyond deconvolution - See through the haze

Elevate your DMi8 image quality with THUNDER, an opto-digital technology that uses the Computational Clearing method to generate high resolution, high contrast images, by removing the out of focus blur inherent to widefield images.

A simple yet powerful real time image enhancement tool, you can use THUNDER on both widefield and spinning disk data sets and see stunning results. With THUNDER Live you can optimize parameters with immediate visual feedback, improving data quality and reducing time to optimal results.
