Light Beads Microscopy #8

Closed CodyCBakerPhD closed 9 months ago

Just noticed this: https://github.com/dandi/helpdesk/discussions/125

What is light beads microscopy, and does this extension account for it?

It's a technique where basically the light beam is multiplexed to simultaneously acquire planes at different depths. So far, the "illumination_type" property of the Microscope can differentiate between the different type of illumination technique (e.g. confocatl, light sheet, light beads). And I guess in this case the plane_acquisitio_rate would be equal to the rate of the VolumetricMicroscopySeries

Fantastic, thanks for checking!
