Beads Inside DLD Device: Video Observations of Lateral Positioning

A set of video recordings of bead lateral positions within the observation area of a Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD) device. Produced by Elham Akbari for the Bayesian Analysis of Microfluidic particle and cluster sorting project, the data was last updated in March 2026. It serves as replication data for engineering and physics studies involving microfluidic sorting mechanisms.

Use Cases

• Quantifying bead lateral displacement patterns within DLD microfluidic channels
• Validating Bayesian models for particle and cluster sorting
• Training computer vision algorithms for micro-particle tracking

Strengths

• Primary source video data from DLD microfluidic devices
• Direct observation of lateral bead positioning for replication studies

Limitations

• Unknown file formats and resolution
• Absence of tabular metadata or pre-extracted coordinate data
• No specification of bead diameters or fluid flow parameters in the metadata
