A project at the University of Strathclyde has now shown that consumer-grade 3D printers and low-cost materials can be used to produce multi-element optical components that enable super-resolution ...

Researchers in Australia have invented a new kind of optical lens that could be combined with a smartphone camera to create a microscope for diagnosing skin cancer or identifying agricultural pests.

UCLA researchers have developed a lens-free microscope that can be used to detect the presence of cancer or other cell-level abnormalities with the same accuracy as larger and more expensive optical ...
