digital microscopes

Design features of digital microscopes

Block diagram of a digital microscope, regardless of the range of possible tasks and class fundamentally solved as a set of modules, optical, electronic and serves for data processing. Obviously the basic role played by optical-mechanical module as responsible for the correctness of the task of forming the image for secondary processing by other modules.

Characteristics of typical digital microscopes

Simple digital magnifier (including as an accessory for mobile phones and laptop computers). Is a combination of a low power microscope (fixed) in the reverse path of the rays - and the receiver (with the secondary modules). Strictly speaking, the magnifying glass is not as zoom, usually less than 1 (one).

Digital Microscopy: the impossible and the possible

The above conditions and microscopic characteristics of micro-set initial requirements for the development of the device (shareware - Digital Microscope), using modern digital technology. Obviously not all, but only a small fraction of traditional microscopy techniques can be used in a digital microscope.
