Abstract:
Embodiments relate to systems and methods for sample image capture using integrated control. A digital microscope or other imaging device can be associated with a sample chamber containing cell, tissue, or other sample material. The chamber can be configured to operate using a variety of environmental variables, including gas concentration, temperature, humidity, and others. The imaging device can be configured to operate using a variety of imaging variables, including magnification, focal length, illumination, and others. A central system control module can be used to configure the settings of those hardware elements, as well as others, to set up and carry out an image capture event. The system control module can be operated to control the physical, optical, chemical, and/or other parameters of the overall imaging environment from one central control point. The variables used to produce the image capture can be configured to dynamically variable during the media capture event.

Claim (Index 36):
A method, comprising:\n invoking a system controller operatively connected to a chamber and an imaging device; initiating, via the system controller, a set of initial environmental settings associated with physical conditions of the chamber; initiating, via the system controller, a set of initial imaging parameters associated with operation of the imaging device; initiating, via the system controller, an image capture event for a sample in the chamber; in response to executing the image capture event, dynamically updating the set of initial environmental settings to a set of changed environmental settings or the set of initial imaging parameters to a set of changed imaging parameters; and capturing media from the image capture event, via the imaging device.
