Claim Text:
1. A method for correcting images acquired via an asynchronous triggered acquisition, wherein image acquisition is triggered by a trigger signal based on a motion or position of a sample to be imaged by an image sensor, the method comprising: measurement of the motion or position of the sample; determination of an exposure time based on the aforementioned measurement; and correction of an acquired image based on the determined exposure time and a desired exposure time, wherein the trigger signal is a quadrature encoder signal that indicates a stage has moved a known and fixed distance in every transition of the signal, wherein the asynchronous triggered acquisition is based on a time delay integration (TDI) scan, wherein the correction of the acquired image comprises scaling pixel intensity values of the acquired image by a ratio of the desired exposure time to the determined exposure time.
