Optical Mapping Movie Samples

These pages contain some old samples from the image database, which has more examples with better overall quality. This page is provided for users that want to quickly see a preview in the form of animated GIFs, .avi and .mpegs.


Temporal pixel multiplexing movies and samples are available here.
