Wireless offers new practical applications, which include:
- Field scientists can examine specimens on site without destroying them in transit to the lab
- Doctors can show patients live images and add them into practice management apps and software
- Teachers can simultaneously show images to a classroom of students using iPads
- Crime scene investigators can send images from the iPhone to a colleague in the lab or to a collaborative agency
Proscope HR Digital Handheld Microscope
ProScope HR, the world's first handheld digital microscope, is now available in the original 1.3 mp imager
Since 2001 the ProScope HR has been a mainstay in science education, law enforcement, and manufacturing quality control worldwide.
