ScanImage 5 will be released in 2014. The next version, ScanImage 2015, will add new features to ScanImage 5 and be released in two early-access steps before public release at SFN 2015.
| Early-Access Release(s) | Public Release | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
SI 5 | May 22 2014 (beta) | SFN 2014 | Recapitulate ScanImage 4 (resonant scanning) features with |
SI 2015 | SFN 2014 2014 (beta) | SFN 2015 | New features beyond ScanImage 5, including galvo arb-scanning, multi-scanner, and other features specified by ScanImage 5 members. |
Early-access releases will be available exclusively to ScanImage 5 members.
ScanImage 5 will have customization layers for both CPU and FPGA-based processing (latter for resonant scanned imaging only) which can be used to implement online or real-time analysis, including closed-loop experiments with parallel imaging and (photo)stimulus.
Vidrio completed an SI5.0 alpha version back in March!! ScanImage 2015 will support the same scanner/digitizer hardware as ScanImage 5

ScanImage 5
SI5.0 Scanner Hardware
- ScanImage 5.0
requires a pair of scanners (one resonant and one galvo scanner) to achieve video-rate area scanning operation.
- SI
ScanImage 5
.0users can choose either:
scanner system that combines a resonant scanner and galvo scanner
scanner components - one resonant scanner and one galvo scanner

Scanner Systems
- Sutter Instrument systems:
- Resonant Scan Box
- MOM-Resonant microscope systems
ScanImage 5 Resonant Scanner Components
- Cambridge Technology components
- CRS 8Khz (part 6SC08KA012-02Y)
- CRS 12Khz (part 6SC12KA012-02Y)
- Classic CRS-8 scanner
ScanImage 5 Galvo Scanner Components
Any analog-driven galvo scanner component, including galvanometer-mounted mirror and servo driver circuit, can be used.
...
Class 0 servo topology is recommended, but not required

ScanImage 5 DAQ Hardware
ScanImage 5 .0 will use National Instruments PXI FlexRIO platform.
SI ScanImage 5 .0 has required, user-selected, and user-optional DAQ components
...
- Basic Option: PXIe-7961R
- Performance Option: PXIe-7975R
For SI 5.0, there will be no difference in operation.
Features in future versions (SI 5.1 2015 & beyond) may depend on utilize the far
greater (~10x) image processing power of the PXIe-7975R, e.g. closed-loop experiments.
