What is autoMicromanager?

autoMicromanager

autoMicromanager is a super handy toolkit that gives you full control over your microscopy setup. Whether you’re using Labview, Matlab, Scilab, Python, .Net, VB, IgorPro, or Mathematica, this software has got your back! Plus, it comes with its own standalone program for image acquisition and scripting control of scientific microscopes. How cool is that?
