3D Tracking, or tracking (of particles, objects, etc.), is a process that connects objects at successive points in time and integrates them into a single object moving through space and time. 3D tracking, as one of the functions of the Imaris analytical software (specifically the ImarisTrack module), is a cutting-edge scientific solution for studying the highly dynamic processes that are part of the intracellular and extracellular processes in cells and cellular organelles.
The ImarisTrack module is based on the use of several sophisticated tracking algorithms for different types of motion and offers a range of tools for the analysis of extremely large and complex datasets (hundreds of GB). Advanced tools include object displacement and rotation correction, allowing the detection of key events occurring in dynamic environments, e.g. tracking a group of defined cells in a developing embryo(live cell imaging). The advantage of this software is the ability to simultaneously visualise 2D, 3D and 4D images with different spatial or temporal dimensions and resolutions, to analyse motion and shape in biological systems, object velocity, size, etc.
