Acousto-Optic Scanner with Fast Non-Linear Scan (ID 51355) - high resolution laser scanner for high end microscopy
Final Decision Maker: Research Labs

The present invention relates to the field of acousto-optical scanners, especially those capable of generating fast 3D scans. This new technology is a microscopy scanner capable of scanning items under a microscope at high speeds with great accuracy and precision. In other words this microscope would be able to scan a 3-dimensional object perfectly catching any curve or groove in the object in order to get a perfect digital picture and at a fast speed.

This technology would greatly benefit research in the fields of high-end microscopy and optical inspection. Researchers doing intricate microscopy would be able to see what they are looking at with great precision and more easily be able to conduct their research. In the field of optical inspection these scanners would be used to catch imperfections on assembly lines. This would be a great quality assurance tool because it would catch defects in devices that human eyes might have missed.

This patented technology was developed at a world-renowned university and research institution with an established track record of innovation and successful technology commercialization.
