Microscope objectives can be confusing, and detailed specs (or even basic properties) are often hard to find. Here's an introductory resource to help new builders and instrument designers with the basics. It's a work in progress so feedback is appreciated:

@TanFad @Micromede @NikonInst@nico_stuurman Since last January there is a NIDAQ device adapter for analog and digital output control. Still no waveforms, that is next on the list (but waiting a bit to fully understand the requirements).
Real-time segmentation of fibroblasts allows us to grow actin skeleton in a specified direction! Cells built @Pertzlab express optogenetic construct to activate RAC. We use @manager_micro and @napari_imaging to train a pixel classifier for segmentation on live data from scope. 🧵
An Acquisition and Training Module based on @manager_micro for straightforward transformation of basic fluorescence microscopes into experimental cell mechanics rigs: https://t.co/p6a6OSMtJX
napari-micromanager is coming along thanks to amazing work from @FedeGasparoli (& help from @ianhi7919!).
w/ working @manager_micro property browser, illumination and ROI control, and a multi-D acquisition widget... all python and C++ with pymmcore 🎉

🔬Live-view, channel switching and exposure control in @napari_imaging! Using @manager_micro as backend. Took some tweaking to get stable framerates, but feels snappy now ⚡️
Fresh on the heels of Micro-Manager 2.0, we are happy to announce a completely revamped @manager_micro website at https://t.co/jWNZdokh39. Great work by the @EliceiriK group, you will recognize elements of the imagej net design.
