Save and read files. The Andor Software Development Kit (SDK) gives the programmer access to the Andor camera and spectrograph range. The key part of the SDK is the dynamic link library which can be used with a wide variety of programming environments including C, C++, C#, Visual Basic and LabVIEW.
The SDK provides a suite of functions that allow you to configure the data acquisition process in a number of different ways. There are also functions to control the CCD temperature and shutter operations, and to save and read files. The driver will automatically handle its own internal memory requirements.
To use the SDK effectively the user must develop a software package to configure the acquisition, provide memory management, process the data and create the software interfaces.
The library is compatible with Windows 2000, XP, Vista and 7. Currently Andor provides both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the SDK. A Linux version of the SDK is also available.

SRRF-Stream presents a powerful superresolution approach that is also widely accessible, being applicable to most existing modern fluorescence microscopes, and compatible with conventional fluorophores, such as fluorescent proteins. That is to say, with SRRF-Stream there is no requirement to use specialized photo-switchable fluorophores as is typically required for localisation super-resolution approaches. The resolving power of SRRF-Stream is excellent, yielding a resolution improvement between 2- and 6-fold (50-150 nm final resolution) for most datasets.
Key features of SRRF-Stream:
- Real Time – enhanced workflow, avoids post-processing.
- Super-Resolution - 2 to 6-fold improvement (50-150 nm final resolution).
- Low Excitation Intensities (mW-W/cm2) – prolonged live cell observations and accurate physiology.
- Conventional Fluorophores, e.g. GFP – simple labelling, no photo-switching required.
- Live Cell Dynamics – full FOV images every 1-2 sec. Smaller ROI sizes can readily achieve superresolution at > 10 Hz.
- Cost-Effective – convert conventional fluorescence microscopes to super-resolution microscopes: widefield, TIRF, confocal.
