3D Plots
The 3D Plots plug-in allows the user to see a three dimensional view of the sample. For example, if two
bands look equally bright in an image, or with naked eye, a 3D plot can actually show if there is a
quantitative difference in intensity.
A 3D plot can also be used as a great presentation tool.
The uniformity of the light source in conjunction with the camera response can be checked using 3D
plots.
Using the 3D Plot Function
LS software 3D plots can be used for static images as well as live preview and integration.
Load an image into LS workspace. (It could be an image captured from the camera or an image
loaded from the disk.)
Click on View > Plugins > 3D Plot Plug-in. This will bring up a separate window that shows the
3D plot.
