| 20110090332 | Image sensor device, apparatus and method for optical measurement - The invention relates to an apparatus and processes for optical measurement and detection with real-time closed-loop controls, which enable higher levels of performance. The invention is especially suitable for applications such as spectroscopy; microscopy; biochemical assays; processes and reactions on miniaturized formats (such as those involving micro-/nano-plates, micro-formats & micro-arrays, chemistry-on-chip, lab-on-chip, micro-channels and micro-fluidics, where dimensions are on micron scale and volumes are in the sub-nanoliter range). Such “intelligent sensing” allows higher data quality and reliability, higher measurement and analysis throughput and lower cost. | 04-21-2011 |
| 20110017902 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOFOCUS - An autofocus apparatus and a method achieve a higher level of speed and robustness, and are particularly suited for fluorescence microscopy of biological samples, automated microscopy and scanning microscopy. A high speed is achieved via a light pattern in the sample, detected spatially resolved by a detector generating at least two signals corresponding to a reflex pattern of the light pattern. The two signals are subtracted generating a positioning signal and the focus of the objective in the sample is adjusted depending on the positioning signal. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20100302631 | MICROSCOPE - The invention is based on a microscope, in particular a fluorescence analysis microscope, comprising an illumination carrier and illumination units arranged thereon for a reflected-light illumination of a sample region. In order to be able to illuminate a sample region uniformly in a simple manner by means of a compact device, it is proposed that at least three illumination units for the simultaneous reflected-light illumination of the sample region from different directions are arranged on the illumination carrier. | 12-02-2010 |
