All iQsmart 3, EverSmart Supreme II and Eversmart Select II models include a unique,
additional software module called oXYgenScan for Scientific Research. This powerful tool
provides manual and automatic focus options at custom defined levels above the base glass.
It provides the user with the capability to accurately scan objects mounted on slides of
different thicknesses and to make multiple layered scans of different sections of the object.
There are also a variety of file types to choose from that provide further dissemination
capabilities of either raw or toned scanned data.

oXYgenScan for Scientific Research is a major addition to oXYgen Scan software developed
mainly for the benefit of research scientists, medical laboratories and forensic science.
However, these precision tools are also of great benefit to many other scanner users who
have special scanning requirements in such areas as digital archiving, antiquity and historical
artifact preservation where originals are held on glass plates, held between two glass panes,
adhered to glass, mounted in frames or other unusual formats.

oXYgenScan for Scientific Research must be installed as a separate oXYgen scanning
application and is suitable for use within OSX 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 operating environments.
