4 Steps to Optimize Optics in Automated Imaging Instruments

May 12, 2022
Discover 4 key steps for selecting an imaging sensor, objective lens, Z-focusing nano-positioning stage and XY sample positioning motion in automated imaging applications.

Optimize the performance and cost of your automated optical imaging system. Topics covered include: key equations for optimal imaging sensor size and resolution, objective lens magnification and numerical aperture, and XYZ motion resolution and stability requirements to enable crisp images. Also discussed is how diffraction affects image resolution and how to calculate the depth of field for a given objective lens.
