Project Description

The project is about a battery-powered portable wide-spectrum illuminating microscope that can image biological specimens around 100 um. This microscope consists of a designed LED light source, at least two objective lenses, one eyepiece lens, an iris, filters, a polarizer, and a diffraction-limited image sensor. Our microscope will have an image processing software to enhance the images captured by the image sensor. The microscope will be controlled by a mobile phone app to control the vertical axis and focus of the microscope with stepper motors. The mobile app will also feature software to capture the images given by the image sensor. It can be used by anyone and it is friendly for all ages. This is especially useful for teaching, observing, and exploring the smaller details of our world outside a laboratory.
