  • Degree-of-focus determination module, position-of-best-focus selection modules, image processing module, imaging system, and corresponding method
    Patent number: 9019422
    Abstract: A system for imaging a structure of an object is provided. The imaging system includes a degree-of-focus determination module that may comprise logic for taking into account at least one of a first and a second dimension of a topological element of the structure to be imaged. An image processing module of the system may comprise: a control module for controlling a motorized focus driver; a memory for storing images; and said degree-of-focus determination module. The imaging system may comprise: a stage; a motorized focus driver for driving the stage; at least one of microscope optics, a lens, an illumination system; a camera; and an image processing module.

  • Device for forming a high-resolution image, imaging system, and method for deriving a high-spatial-resolution image
    Patent number: 8896683
    Abstract: A device for forming a high-resolution image of an object is provided. The device comprises: an electronic camera for capturing an intermediate image of the object, an illumination system for forming a spatial modulation pattern on the object; and a spatial demodulator for performing a spatial demodulation, which is at least partially matched to the spatial modulation pattern. A method for deriving a high-spatial-resolution image from a set of images captured from a structure of an object is derived, wherein the illumination of the object is spatially-modulated, wherein the illumination of the object has a spatial modulation pattern, which is substantially periodic, wherein one of at least one prevailing orientation of the periodic illumination is arranged substantially perpendicularly to at least one prevailing orientation of the structure of the object.
