A low-cost do-it-yourself microscope kit for hands-on science education

Publishing date: 2018-10-01 Published on: SPIE Digital Library summary: A low cost microscope kit “the other way round”: instead of requiring the user to peer through eye-pieces, this design aligns a series of lenses around a sample plane and shines light through the centre to project the greatly magnified image onto a piece of paper that can be comfortably observed with the naked eye.
