Abstract

In general this device allows one to rapidly configure a mobile phone for use with a microscope. When using the device a person can take images or videos and rapidly share them, or have another user videoconference in and see the images in real time. Further, it saves both money and time when using a microscope in a laboratory (or other) setting. This device can also be used without microscope for a macro lens with illumination and light differential for purposes such as jewelry or medical examination.
