LAB SERIES: Join us for a discussion in the imaging lab about the fundamentals of microscope objectives and introductory concepts needed for understanding how to use them in machine vision systems.

Advances in Microscopy Tackle the Challenges of the Future

Microscopes are used in a variety of fields and applications. To understand how resolving power, magnification, and other aspects work, read more at Edmund Optics.

Differential interference microscopy enhances the contrast of object features that are otherwise difficult to observe using brightfield microscopy.

Reflective objectives use mirrors to focus light or form an image. Learn more about the different types and benefits of reflective objectives at Edmund Optics.

The unique absorption properties of 2µm lasers allow them to create small and precise cuts for medical and materials processing applications
