ITG — The Imaging Technology Group
The
Imaging Technology Group (ITG) provides sophisticated microscopy, spectroscopy,
and visualization facilities (including macrophotography, ultra-high-speed imaging, and
custom journal covers/figures), as well as a comprehensive list of
2D and 3D image analysis software packages. These services are available for researchers at the Beckman
Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, the University of Illinois at
Urbana–Champaign, other universities, startups, and industry. The secondary
mission of ITG is to develop advanced imaging technologies with an emphasis on
projects in remote instrument control and novel types of scientific
visualization.
