Manuals

Particle Tracking Software

  • Camera Software: Motic Images Plus 2.0 (available for PC and Mac) [2]
  • Image Analysis: ImageJ [3]

The following ImageJ plugins can be used to track particles over images automatically :

  1. Mtrack2 - http://valelab.ucsf.edu/~nico/IJplugins/MTrack2.html
  2. Particle Tracker 2D and 3d - https://weeman.inf.ethz.ch/ParticleTracker/
