The LightField 4.0 from Princeton Instruments is a new 64-bit image and spectral acquisition software package which provides a user interface and the functionality needed to set up and perform complex optical diagnostic experiments. This software includes many useful and easy to use features at the user's fingertips and supports the company's PIXIS, PI-MAX 3, ProEM, PyLoN and Quad-RO cameras as well as Acton spectrographs. Features include the IntelliCal spectrograph calibration method, which ensures pixel-by-pixel wavelength and intensity accuracy by using NIST-traceable references and the ability to control PI-MAX 3 ICCD cameras via a virtual dashboard similar to a laboratory oscilloscope. Additional features include automatic hardware detection with intelligent default set-up, automatic saving of every acquisition, direct streaming of multi-gigabyte pixel data to the hard drive, “live vs previously acquired” data comparison, live statistics, a search box, a spectrograph alignment helper, a built-in time stamp, multiple-user experiment settings multiple-camera control and many customisation possibilities. It runs on Microsoft Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate operating systems.
