Bioluminescence microscopy using a short focal-length imaging lens
Bioluminescence from cells is so dim that bioluminescence microscopy is performed using an ultra low-light imaging camera. Although the image sensor of such cameras has been greatly improved over time, such improvements have not been made commercially available for microscopes until now. Here, we customized the optical system of a microscope for bioluminescence imaging. As a result, bioluminesc...
متن کاملLaser differential reflection-confocal focal-length measurement.
A new laser differential reflection-confocal focal-length measurement (DRCFM) method is proposed for the high-accuracy measurement of the lens focal length. DRCFM uses weak light reflected from the lens last surface to determine the vertex position of this surface. Differential confocal technology is then used to identify precisely the lens focus and vertex of the lens last surface, thereby ena...
متن کاملOn the precision of a length measurement
We show that quantum mechanics and general relativity imply the existence of a minimal length. To be more precise, we show that no operational device subject to quantum mechanics, general relativity and causality could exclude the discreteness of spacetime on lengths shorter than the Planck length. We then consider the fundamental limit coming from quantum mechanics, general relativity and caus...
متن کاملLong Focal Length Imaging for Photogrammetric Reconstruction
The following paper describes a method to capture high quality image data for the use of photogrammetric reconstruction techniques. The main principle is to use long focal length to capture immense amount of spatial and radiometric detail. The method was tested at two mediaeval building sites, the Olavinlinna Castle in Savonlinna and the Church of the Holy Cross in Hattula. Long focal length is...
متن کاملFull-aperture long focal-length measurement based on divergent beam
A new method for long focal-length measurements is proposed. In this method, we employ divergent beam and two Ronchi gratings of different periods, as the alternative to collimated beams and two identical gratings in traditional method, to realize achieve higher accuracy. Moreover, with divergent beam, the full-aperture measurement is easily realized when detect large diameter lens. The experim...
