Description

The School of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Leeds is seeking tenders for an all-in-one digital microscope to view biological and mechatronics samples.

We are looking for a 3D optical digital microscope to observe, capture, and measure macro-scale objects (with manual and motorised stage for 360 degree measurement), in both 2D and 3D in a single device. We are looking for real-time full-depth composition, visualisation, and analysis using high resolution CMOS sensors. This must enable high definition video microscopy at high frequency, multi-angle observation for complex 3D objects, and full-colour 3D surface topography of objects with large changes in height.
