[Birdbrain] is trying to make their own microfluidic devices. To aid in this quest, they need a quality microscope to see what they’re doing. Instead of buying one outright, they purchased a cheap ...

Engineers at Stanford University have developed a high-efficiency, battery/solar-operated, autonomous microscope with integrated artificial intelligence that automatically diagnoses malaria in blood ...

One aspect of working for Hackaday comes in our regular need to take good quality photographs for publication. I have a semi-decent camera that turns my inept pointing and shooting into passably good ...

MIT physicists have built a new microscope that can see quantum motion inside superconductors ...

Researchers have created the world’s smallest silicon LED and holographic microscope that opens up a wide range of potential applications, including turning your smartphone camera into a portable, ...

Behold, the world’s fastest microscope: it works at such an astounding speed that it’s the first-ever device capable of capturing a clear image of moving electrons. This is a potentially ...

By combining two fundamentally different microscopy techniques, researchers can now measure the optical properties of a ...

You can tell a lot about a material based on the type of light shining at it: Optical light illuminates a material's surface, ...

The implications of the breakthrough could ripple through multiple industries. A better understanding of how superconductivity behaves at quantum scales could accelerate the development of ...

A new microscope is giving scientists a clearer, more comprehensive view of biological processes as they unfold in living animals. The microscope produces images of entire organisms, such as a ...
