The Nikon PFS hardware autofocus can maintain a constant distance between the O1 objective and the sample. However, element in both the LF and LS remote refocus arms can drift over time, causing focal shifts in both arms. We will likely need image-based autofocus to re-position O3 in the LS arm and the scan mirror in the LF arm (both of which have motorized coarse stages). This autofocus will likely need to run only once every 30-60 min depending on the drift we observe.
