Smart acquisition is an advanced capability of NIS-Elements designed to enhance efficiency and precision in biology research experiments. It allows the software to autonomously decide what images to capture based on pre-defined conditions set by the user. By continuously analyzing the ongoing experiment, the software identifies key events and triggers image acquisition only when specific criteria are met. This not only reduces the volume of unnecessary data but also ensures that critical moments are captured with optimal timing and accuracy. The acquisition conditions are fully customizable, allowing researchers to tailor the imaging process to their specific experimental needs. Whether focusing on particular cellular events, changes in fluorescence intensity, or other biological markers, users can set precise criteria to adjust the decision-making process.

The “smartness” of any acquisition experiment is based on the cooperation of two powerful NIS-Elements modules:
