Abstract: | Microscopy, especially the kind that uses specialised imaging techniques, is commonly an expensive endeavour, making its accessibility problematic. This motivates the development of an open-source microscope that incorporates open-source technologies like Arduino, 3D printing, and Raspberry Pi to reduce this cost and barrier to entry. Additionally, using such technologies yields significant freedom for the end user to customise designs and empowers them to facilitate their own needs. The Creative Technology design cycle was used to guide the design of microscopy hardware and evaluate it with an end user, resulting in a fully functional prototype for the inspection of 3D prints and electronic boards. |
