Control ZEN Blue and the microscope from MATLAB
This example illustrates the possibility to control the ZEN Blue microscope control software from within a MATLAB script via the COM interface. This allows using the ZEN Python scripts as an integral part of an M-File.
The ZEN OAD (Open Application Development) API can be imported into MATLAB and allows automating the complete workflow including the image acquisition from MATLAB.
- ZEN is used as an image acquisition machine
- the experiment is started directly from within MATLAB
- the resulting CZI file is imported via BioFormats
- the image analysis is done in MATLAB
