Abstract: A magnetic energy system including a pathway having inclined portions of the pathway contiguous with declined portions of the pathway and an object adapted to move on the pathway by descending a declined portion of the pathway under the influence of gravity and ascending the contiguous inclined portion of the pathway under the combined influence of kinetic energy and a magnetic flux field interaction with release of the object from the magnetic flux field interaction at a pathway height equal to or greater than the initial height of the object on the preceding declined portion of the pathway.

Abstract: A system and method for correcting the color of microscope images is described wherein a microscope, equipped with a variable light source and at least one microscope setting selector operates in conjunction with an image recording device having at least one image setting selector with a plurality of settings, and is configured to record at least one white balanced sample image of a sample. The system and method also includes the use of at least one white balanced calibration image of an integral transmissive color filter array of known transmission values in combination with an image processor executing code in order to color calibrate the sample images based on the calibration image.
