Described as the worlds first totally digital and totally automated microscope that anyone can operate, combining groundbreaking technology with unsurpassed simplification
The new Coolscope combines groundbreaking technology with unsurpassed simplification in digital imaging for stained specimens in clinical and scientific applications in pathology, histology, anatomy, and morphology, etc Digital imaging, and image network transfer is at the click of a mouse button. Coolscope saves time bypassing traditional microscope set up procedures, digital camera operation, and connections to a PC. This enables quick observation of standard bright field specimens in a fast and simple manner.
Coolscope's automated set up functions are said to take the stress out of microscopy. Employing fast auto focus, motorised magnification changing, aperture diaphragm, light intensity, and auto white balance controls plus a motorised specimen stage.
A compact design allows for ergonomic observation and operation at the click of a mouse. Free from complicated operations, the user now can fully focus on the diagnosis, navigating through the specimen selecting the appropriate areas of interest.
Simply load a slide and Coolscope takes over, automatically generating a macro overview image. Navigation is a simple process using the mouse to view any position on the specimen, continuous (scrolling) or jumping frame by frame.
In the main image window a (magnified) live image can be called up.
The current position of the (magnified) live image can be marked in the macro image.
Up to ten coordinates can be stored allowing the user to switch between stored and live positions with a click on the mouse.
Four magnifications 5x, 10x, 20x, and 40x, focus position and digital camera settings can be stored and changed quickly in the easy to use graphical user interface.
Integrated into the Coolscope is a bright, homogenous LED illumination module, a 5 megapixel digital camera, providing bright, high-resolution images in SXGA format.
High-resolution images can be stored easily on a Compact Flash card with a resolution up to 2560x1920 pixels.
Moreover, Coolscope can be directly integrated in a network (Lan, Internet) using a TCP/IP protocol, for storing images on a server or enabling remote viewing of Coolscope images for tele-microscopy.
Connecting the Coolscope to a video projector for clinical meeting presentations for teaching and case discussions are possible too.
