Article Synopsis
  • Autonomous migration is crucial for immune cell function and has significant implications for various diseases.
  • ComplexEye is a new high-throughput microscope that allows for efficient analysis of cell migration in standard 96- and 384-well plates.
  • This system dramatically speeds up the process of screening for compounds that affect neutrophil migration, completing in 4 days what would typically take 60 days with standard methods.

Performance of systems for optical detection depends on the choice of the right detector for the right application. Designers of optical systems for ranging applications can choose from a variety of highly sensitive photodetectors, of which the two most prominent ones are linear mode avalanche photodiodes (LM-APDs or APDs) and Geiger-mode APDs or single-photon avalanche diodes (SPADs). Both achieve high responsivity and fast optical response, while maintaining low noise characteristics, which is crucial in low-light applications such as fluorescence lifetime measurements or high intensity measurements, for example, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), in outdoor scenarios.
