Looking for beta testers of our cell tracking software:

We look for partners that can contribute as beta-testers as users of our cell tracking software. We can make a cell visualization product from your live cell video. This includes the ability to browse your video in different ways such as locating special cells, find cells in the video by clicking on a pedigree tree, locate "relative cells" (see screenshot below where four circles mark individual cells with a common second generation ancestor), you get a large set of pedigree trees on a "web solution" which sorts the trees according actual criteria (for example "tree size"). You are supposed to provide us video records of mono-layer cells. You are also supposed patiently to comment on a user manual which we work on and in this way contribute to it. We have to agree on the details for this work. If this message is actual for you, please contact us.

News :

2016-09-27: KoBio releases its first beta/experimental version of Kobio_Celltrack, which is a portable, free and open source software tool for tracking cells from image recordings of unilayer cells. It based on Ada 2012 using GLOBE_3D as an OpenGL language binding. The system also uses Generic Image Decoder to read image data. This release is considered as a test release. More news and documentation on Kobio_Celltrack to come. Download. *Update: this version is deprecated due to restructuring/rewriting of code.

2017-10-02: After another year of work on our cell tracking software, we are now looking for partners that can contribute as beta-testers for it. The software has been, almost totally, rewritten based on acquired experience the latest year.

2018-07-06: New publication much based on tracking A549 lung cancer cells during four days: available here .

2018-07-16: Have introduced Ada multitasking in tracking program.

Example from multi-tracking of cells using Kobio Celltrack. The image recording was made by Cytation 5 Cell Imaging Multi-Mode Reader from Biotek. 10 hours tracking of many BC3H1 cells (left) + one of these cells dividing after almost 9 hours (right):
