Name: PoMiDAQ
Author: Matthias Klumpp

PoMiDAQ is a recording software for UCLA Miniscopes for neuroscientific research. It provides an easy way to record videos from Miniscopes, create Z-stacks to give an overview of visible cells or tissue features and provides an online background subtraction feature to gain an initial insight into cellular calcium activity while data is recorded. Recorded data is encoded with the FFV1 codec by default, to allow for smaller, lossless video files that are safe to archive.The software is designed to work with the latest OpenCV libraries and provides a shared library, so Miniscope recording features can easily be embedded into other programs and pipelines. PoMiDAQ will work with Miniscope V3, V4 and the Siminiscope hardware using the standard DAQ box v3.2.

      Syntalos is a software for timestamp-synchronized parallel data acquisition from diverse data sources,
      such as cameras, microendoscopes, Intan electrophysiology amplifiers or Firmata-based serial interfaces.
      The software also allows closed-loop interventions via its built-in Python scripting support.
      It is specifically designed for use in (neuro)scientific in vivo behavior experiments.
    
      
      The modularity of this software allows its use for a wide variety of experiments and it often can be used without
      any programming skills. Data sources, sinks and processing blocks can be connected graphically with virtual
      "wires" to form a data flow graph using drag &amp; drop, to represent how data should be acquired, displayed
      or stored.
      Syntalos can be expanded with custom Python scripts and custom modules if more flexibility is needed.
      For all data sources, Syntalos ensures timestamps of incoming data are aligned, so the individual pieces of
      data can be correlated without additional processig or external synchronization.
    
      
      All data and metadata generated from an experiment run is stored in a well-defined, comprehensive structure,
      making it easy to compare, pool or share data between experimentalists with different research questions.
