The Flamingo is a modular, shareable light sheet microscope suited to a new model of scientific collaboration. Each microscope is customized for a given application, equipped to travel from lab to lab and providing widespread access to advanced microscopy. It is a compact selective plane illumination microscope (SPIM) that can be turned upright for multi-view imaging of hanging samples or turned on its side for samples in a dish. Rapid multi-color imaging is achieved via sCMOS cameras and several possible laser lines. With its selective sheet illumination, the Flamingo is well suited for fast and gentle imaging of developing organisms.
