Aura by Spectral Instruments Imaging is a comprehensive, feature rich and user-friendly
software analysis tool for optical imaging. The seamless end to end workflow – from
acquisition through analysis – maps user journeys through the most complex protocols,
providing breakthrough productivity for researchers everywhere.

KEY FEATURES
• Robust Analysis Software for Optical Imaging – BLI, FLI, X-ray
• Features Designed for Productivity allow you to efficiently sort images and perform
multiple overlays of imaging modes
• Import Legacy Image Files – display and analyze files from Living Image® (IVIS®)
• 100% License Free – Available for PC & Mac users
AUTOMATED ACQUISITIONS
Aura has user-friendly image acquisition with customizable settings, instrument control
and productivity features like Group Image Protocols. The Group Image Acquisition feature
helps configure and acquire a sequence of images in a precise and automated manner.
This frees up researcher time and reduces risk of errors.
EFFICIENT ANALYSIS
The integrated Image Manager has been designed from the ground up for improved and
simplified process of browsing and filtering image files. Numerous features greatly aide in
the user’s productivity.
EARLY DETECTION FLUORESCENCE SUPPORT
Aura builds on Spectral Instrument Imaging’s patented technology for high sensitivity FLI.
It includes improvements in early detection and proven functionality for spectral unmixing.
FREE LICENSING
Unlimited copies of Aura analysis software are available for free download, with no license.
Researchers are no longer instrument bound, and can analyze images on their personal
computers. With Aura’s ability to import images files from Living Image® (IVIS®)
researchers can now use Aura to analyze images from other instruments and collaborate
with teams worldwide.
USER LOGGING & COLLABORATION
Aura includes features for personalized user settings, logging of usernames, time logged in,
images taken, etc.
