ioLight Microscope travels to Antarctica

High-Resolution Microscopy in Antarctica or Anywhere!

Many thanks to Jim Janoso of Northern Focus Optical for this great picture of his ioLight microscope at Palmer Station in Antarctica.

Travelling to remote places means keeping the size and weight to a minimum. So, big heavy traditional compound microscopes are out. The ioLight microscope is the size of a small paperback book and weighs just a pound (450g), so you really can take it anywhere. Researchers use our microscopes in Kazakhstan, The Amazon, across Africa and Mount Everest as well as Antartica. There is no compromise on quality. 1-micron resolution images are saved on your phone ready for sharing on the internet when you next have a connection. It even records video.

The ioLight microscope is very rugged and simple to use. So you can capture the images you need fast.

ioLight designed our portable microscope designed to take with you, wherever you go.
