The little picture: Microscopes are cool. There is something fascinating about looking at objects that you cannot normally see with your naked eye. Of course, carrying a microscope around for whenever ...

On paper, the Find X3 Pro’s microlens should be terrible. It’s listed on the spec sheet as a 3-megapixel, f/3.0 micro lens with fixed focus, and I certainly feared it was nothing more than a rebranded ...

AR Micro-Blocks have been created to provide users with a new augmented reality microscope that uses the power of your tablet or iPhone to help you explore a microscopic world normally unseen to the ...

A micro-microscope Engineers at the California Institute of Technology have designed a dime-sized lensless microscope able to capture high-resolution images of cells and pathogens.

It’s relatively easy to understand how optical microscopes work at low magnifications: one lens magnifies an image, the next magnifies the already-magnified image, and so on until it reaches the eye ...

Smaller and more versatile laser confocal microscopy platforms would potentially be of great value for in vivo imaging of live biological specimens, in scenarios where the size of conventional ...

Two techniques in one Conceptual illustration of the bidirectional quantitative scattering microscope, which detects both forward and backward scattered light from cells. This dual detection enables ...

This fingertip-size microscope—which weighs a half-gram (0.02 oz.) and easily attaches to any smartphone camera lens with a nano suction pad—magnifies small objects up to 200 times. According to ...
