We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Microscope",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Novel optics improve dewpoint measurement from
Michell Instruments, which we summarised at the time by saying "Cooled mirror dewpointmeter promises unmatched accuracy in dew point measurements for both calibration and process critical applications".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Zoom system eases part inspection from
Edmund Optics: "The VZM 100i offers a 0.25x primary magnification, a 4:1 zoom ratio and a horizontal field of view of 25.6mm when using a 2/3-inch sensor".
In July 2007, we covered the news from Moritex Europe
concerning its Super Optical Device 3
- take a look at Vision system handles small components
which says: "SOD-III users can choose from a suite of high-performance peripherals including cameras and light guides".
Take a look also at the news release from Armstrong Optical, 3D topography device measures profiles,
as well as Metrology microscopes automatically correct errors from Nikon UK,
and Devices allow 3D microscopy from Armstrong Optical.
