The OpenSPIM project is a collaboration between multiple labs to establish an accessible, easily adjustable light sheet microscope system.

The µOpenSPIM application for Micro Manager is the primary means to acquire image stacks with the OpenSPIM setups.

Where to get the latest development build

This project is built and tested by the ImageJ Jenkins server:

http://jenkins.imagej.net/view/OpenSPIM/job/micro-OpenSPIM/

The latest builds including sources and javadoc attachments are available on that web site, too.

How to build yourself

This project is a regular Maven project, drawing on the SciJava project. You can import it into your IDE of choice (such as Eclipse, IntelliJ, Netbeans, etc) or build it from the command-line:

mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="spim.microOpenSPIM"

This builds the µOpenSPIM JFX application which can load µManager 2.0 by pointing the µManager installed location.
