Hardware Info (by vendor)

For the wide-range of hardware supported by ScanImage & Ephus, custom software interfaces must often be developed, allowing their capabilities to be accessed via scripting in Matlab. All recent and planned releases of ScanImage include a Matlab [package] called DABS, which contains a growing number of such device interface [classes].

DABS classes provide a MATLAB object-oriented scripting interface for the supported devices, which some users may find useful in and of themselves.

For instance, the package dabs.ni.daqmx is a near complete wrapping of the National Instruments [DAQmx] driver into MATLAB. This package effectively recapitulates and extends upon the MATLAB [Data Acquisition Toolbox]. DABS also includes abstract superclasses to facilitate the development of device interfaces to a common standard. For instance a Linear Stage Controller superclass has been developed. Users can create custom subclasses for their particular stage controllers, allowing ScanImage to operate with these devices.

Note that Ephus makes use of two earlier-style Matlab device interfaces: NiMex and QCamMex.
