UC2 CourseBOX

Posted on 3 August 2020

CourseBOX teaches the core principles of microscopy and basics of optical alignment. It is intended for microscopy courses for students that are rather on the side of users than designers. This BOX provides a hands-on experience with insight into the black box that microscope often seems to be. It comes with alignment tutorials and relies on basic components. By reusing the components and starting from the common ground, it shows that all the microscopy methods are based on only a few principles.

You can build it yourself, for less than 500€ and learn about optics from our manuals.

The toolbox is still in active development and any suggestions for improvements are warmly welcome!
