ConfocalVR — immersive 3D exploration of microscopy image stacks. Load Z-stacks from confocal, two-photon, electron microscopy, and other volumetric techniques. Navigate in true 3D on Meta Quest.

What it does

  • Render Z-stacks as navigable 3D volumes — fly through tissue, rotate specimens, examine from any angle
  • Multi-channel — up to 30 channels with independent brightness, threshold, and opacity controls
  • Format support — TIFF, NIfTI, DICOM, PNG, JPG loaded directly on the headset
  • Cloud loading — download from Google Drive or any web source via Quest Browser. No PC required
  • Collaboration — share a virtual space with colleagues anywhere in the world
  • Measurement — distances, histograms, object marking and counting
  • 4D time sequences — display time-series stacks as short movies
  • Real-time controls — transfer functions, brightness, contrast, clipping planes
  • Smart data handling — large files auto-subsampled to fit Quest memory (~30 million voxels)

Who it's for

Scientists, educators, and core facility managers. If your instrument produces a Z-stack, ConfocalVR can render it.

Larger datasets? A Windows desktop version handles up to 128M voxels. See immsci.com/confocalvr.
