Cockpit Icon

Cockpit is a microscope graphical user interface. It is a flexible and easy to extend platform aimed at life scientists using bespoke microscopes. More detailed information is available:

Main Features

  • Easy to use and extend by life scientists: Cockpit is completely written in Python and meant to be extended by the user.

  • Independent of the actual devices being used: Cockpit uses Python’s Microscope package to control the devices. The graphical interface and experiments automatically adjust to the existing devices.

  • Very fast device control and time precision: During experiments, devices are controlled via hardware signals.
