For the first time scientists of all ages can capture and share professional quality images in the field instead of bringing samples back to the lab.
Conventional microscopes work best on a lab bench, but are too big, sensitive and unstable for field use and they need power, a camera and a computer to capture images. They are also expensive. Field microscopes compromise on image quality and are fiddly to use. The ioLight microscope fits in a jacket pocket, is simple to use and robust...
