Vacancy expired!
Hi colleague-friend! We are a small high-tech firm, which is working at the cutting edge of knowledge and technologies. At the moment, we have a manually-controlled TIRF (total internal reflection fluorescence) system, which directs laser beam into a microscope. Currently, we are using manual XY translation stage to scan the beam over 20-mm diameter spot. We want to piggyback on laser show galvanometer-scanner technology and products to perform similar scanning over the 20-mm spot, but using a computer controlled system. We envision a laser scanner hardware similar to ScannerMax from Pangolin, respective drivers, other stuff and free or inexpensive ILDA laser software to direct our lasers and scan the 20-mm spot. We have engineering, prototyping, machining, micro manufacturing and other capabilities in house. However, we want to piggyback on Pangolin ready-from-shelf products as much as possible. They use ILDA software. Experience with Arduino, Raspberry and microscopy Micromanager software would be a plus, but is not critically necessary for this galvo-scanner project.
This is a contractual piece of work, with a potential to transform into a full-time job. We are looking for a professional, who is a self-starter, "go-getter", result-, rather than process-oriented individual.
If you feel that you are the one, please respond to this post. It will be fun to work together.
