Globals Software · G-SOFT Inc.
Globals Software is scientific software developed by Enrico Gratton for the analysis, acquisition, simulation, and visualization of data from spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy.
There are three separate versions of Globals Software for the Windows operating system:
Globals for Images · SimFCS: fluorescence image analysis, visualization, simulation, and acquisition.
Globals for Airyscan: Image correlation analysis for the ZEISS™ LSM 880 Airyscan detector.
Globals for Spectroscopy: analysis of data from time and frequency domain fluorometry, stopped flow kinetics, photon migration, and anisotropy decay.
Globals Software can be downloaded for free. Versions of SimFCS released after June 23, 2020 can be used for free. Other versions can be used for 30 days for free and continued use requires registration with a software license key. License keys are no longer available for purchase.
Globals Software · G-SOFT Inc. is a sponsor of the Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics (LFD), the LFD Workshop in Advanced Fluorescence Imaging and Dynamics, the International Weber Symposium on Innovative Fluorescence Methodologies in Biochemistry and Medicine, the Gregorio Weber International Prize in Biological Fluorescence, and the LFD Colloquium.

License Registration
Globals Software can be downloaded and used for 30 days without registration.
The latest versions of Globals for Images · SimFCS and Globals for Spectroscopy do not require registration with a license key and can be used for free.
To continue using the software beyond the 30-day trial period, the software must be registered with a software license key. License keys are no longer available for purchase.
During the registration process, the hardware of the computer on which the software is installed is bound to the license. The registration cannot be undone, and the license cannot be transferred to another computer. Therefore, use the 30-day trial period to test the software before registering.
To register Globals for Images · SimFCS, open the "SimFCS Registration" program from the "SimFCS 4" folder in the Windows start menu. Enter your name (in the "licensee name" field) and the purchased license key (in the "serial number" field), and then press the "Register" button. Registration requires administrator privileges and a working Internet connection. Once registered, the software can be used without internet connection or administrator privileges. Do not register again with another license key if the software is already registered.
To register Globals for Airyscan, open the "Globals for Airyscan Registration" program from the "Globals for Airyscan" folder in the Windows start menu. Enter your name (in the "licensee name" field) and the purchased license key (in the "serial number" field), and then press the "Register" button. Registration requires administrator privileges and a working Internet connection. Once registered, the software can be used without internet connection or administrator privileges. Do not register again with another license key if the software is already registered.
To register Globals for Spectroscopy, enter the purchased license key when prompted for a registration password.
