ioLight

About this app

Displays and captures beautiful images and videos from the ioLight high resolution portable microscope.

Laboratory microscopes produce beautiful images, but cost over £3,000 and are difficult to use. Cheap microscopes do not have enough resolution for professional use or teaching. ioLight has developed a digital microscope, with a resolution of better than 1μm, which produces beautiful pictures of animal and plant cells and displays them directly onto your tablet or mobile phone.

The ioLight microscope has worldwide patents pending.

What’s new

This update adds Z-Stack imaging. This saves 9 images at different focus positions which can be ‘stacked’ into a single image composed of the in-focus parts of each image using software such as ImageJ. Activate Z-Stack by holding the still image or time-lapse buttons.

Image file names have been changed to include date, time and (for Z-stack) focus position. This enables time-lapse and time-lapse / Z-stack image sets to be easily imported into ImageJ.
