The VT-iSIM features VTi's patented 2D-Array scanning architecture; enabling scan, de-scan, and re-scan of multiple points of illumination and emission, with just a single moving element. Each scan produces a complete image, delivering ultra-fast, full-frame capture rates of up to 500 Hz.

With instant SIM technology, the VT-iSIM delivers super-resolution images in real time, with no reconstruction or post-processing required. You get spatial resolution down to 100 nm, reduced photo-bleaching, and across a wide field of view. Faster. Clearer. Smarter imaging.

Due to our innovative 2-D array scanning architecture, large independent arrays of Β΅Lenses, and the instant nature of re-assignment, the VT-iSIM delivers class-leading performance in photo-bleaching when compared to standard array and non-array scanning confocals, @2x spatial and axial resolution.

Thank you to Ian Dobbie for organising a great workshop (in a very hot DC β˜€οΈ) on the commercialisation of imaging systems within bio-medical research, and for giving me the opportunity to discuss the story of the #VTiSIM. Great talks and great discussion.

At KCL I could quickly test the iSIM (http://www.visitech.co.uk/vt-isim.html) from the @NikonInst Center - quite nice for a Z-stack aquired in ~10 seconds

As is traditional with iSIM @visitech.bsky.social, we see things we never saw before.

The first noisy image from a faint sample- live ND7/23 cells transfected with NMDA receptors tagged with RFP & GFP.

But we never saw the membrane before...highly satisfying. More to come!

Trying out inverted 3-color lookup tables in FIJI today. Here is recruited RNA polymerase II (red), elongating RNA polymerase II (black-ish), and DNA (blue). Fixed zebrafish embryo nucleus recorded with iSIM @visitech.bsky.social

Any suggestions for color combinations for three-channel composite?
