“We’re now using AI to read the labels, and it’s working really, really well. What used to take days can now be done in minutes.”
Christine Johnson, American Museum of Natural History
“The Magnify2 has really been a workhorse. It’s given us confidence to say yes to projects, knowing it will deliver. It’s turnkey but flexible—we can adapt it to our needs without having to call for help every time.”
Colin McFadden, University of Minnesota
We have been very pleased with the instructional help we have received from GIGAmacro when we train new personnel. The patient and thorough attention is much appreciated when new people are brought on board. When you have a good teacher walking you through the process, you can say ‘this is easy to learn,’ and move forward with confidence.

“Because it’s so reliable, interns and volunteers can run it easily, turning extra hands into measurable throughput.”
Dr. Bruno de Medeiros, Field Museum of Natural History
In most ways, it’s the next best thing to holding the sample in your own two hands. In some ways, it’s even better than the real thing – thanks to the addition of geographic context, expert annotations, and a written legacy of community feedback.
Our GIGAmacro imaging system makes amazing, enormous, explorable images of first-rate quality. The combination of zoomed-out context and smooth resolution of zoomed-in detail makes these images extraordinarily powerful for web-based exploration of samples of rocks, minerals, fossils, and sediment. Our team is very pleased to be able to use the GIGAmacro imaging system as a tool for sharing geological insights with the world.

I am so impressed with the GIGAmacro system. It delivers professional results at affordable prices. The software is easy to master – we were up and running in minutes. The interface provides clear options for notation and analysis. The system can be used for a wide variety of difficult to photograph objects across a broad range of disciplinary domains—such as entomology, archaeology, paleontology, and meteoritics. It can also be customized to maximize throughput for large collections. We are looking forward to making the latest version of the GIGAmacro system the center-piece of our new scanning facility at Arizona State University.
