Volocity Restoration
Volocity® Restoration improves the quality and resolution of 3D data sets quickly and easily. Applied to standard widefield fluorescence microscope images, the result is superior quality confocal data. Confocal, spinning disk and multi-photon images may reveal even more detail through the removal of out-of-focus haze. Volocity Restoration is an essential imaging tool and supports a wide range of file formats from confocal microscopes and widefield systems.
Increase the quality of your images and your results
- Quickly and easily improve the quality and resolution of your widefield and confocal images to gain greater insights. Reveal more detail for visualization and achieve more accurate quantitation with deconvolved data using Volocity RestorationMV.
See your cells with stunning clarity
- Remove the out-of-focus information (a product of the optical properties of the microscope) from standard widefield fluorescence images to produce superior confocal quality images, enabling you to make measurements from the image data
- Batch process multiple data sets for convenience and speed
- Break the image into blocks for faster, less memory intensive processing
- Further improve the quality of image data acquired on your imaging system.
Tailor to your research
- Select from a choice of PSFs - create calculated PSFs for widefield, confocal, two photon confocal and spinning disk confocal imaging systems, or measure a PSF from your system to acquire data
- Award-winning Iterative Restoration algorithm, developed by Quorum Technologies from published Maximum Entropy techniques, designed to significantly improve in resolution in XY and Z
- Fast Restoration algorithm developed by Quorum Technologies to rapidly compute and produce superior results when viewed in XY. It uses every voxel in the volume in a single pass process to improve both the visual quality and the precision of the result.

Recommended Specification
This is our recommended system for each platform. Specifications from manufacturers change regularly so an exact configuration cannot be described. Please read this complete document and use the information it contains, together with material available from your vendor, to configure your system.
Microsoft Windows (64-bit)
- Processor: Quad core Intel Xeon Core 3.7GHz or better, or i7 Quad core 3.6GHz or better
Operating System: Windows 7 Professional x64, Windows 10
- Graphics Card: ATI Radeon RX 500 series/NVIDIA GeForce GTX 10xx series or better
- RAM: 16GB or more
- Hard Disk: Dual 500GB SATA drives configured as RAID-0 or 500GB SSD drives
- Other: Free USB port for hardware key
Processor
The new quad core processors from Intel support the Intel 64-bit instruction set and offer excellent performance. For users with a more constrained budget, i7 processor would be a good choice. The Dell Precision T3640 is an example of such a system. Operating System Windows 7 Professional x64 is the 64 bit version of Windows 7 or Windows 10
Graphics
Purchase the fastest, high performance gaming graphics card, with at least 2GB video memory, currently available. From ATI the Radeon series are recommended, the NVIDIA equivalent is the GeForce series. Please ensure your system will provide sufficient power and cooling for this card. Consult your vendor for more information. Quadro and FireGL cards are adequate, but are not ideal for Volocity. Multiple graphics cards do not offer benefits to applications such as Volocity.
