Light Field Microscope

A Light Field Microscope is a sophisticated imaging device that captures not just the intensity of light from objects, but also the direction in which that light travels. This allows it to create detailed, three-dimensional images of samples without slicing them into thin layers. By recording this additional information, researchers can focus on different depths of a sample after it has been imaged. This technology is especially valuable in biology for studying living cells and tissues in their natural state, providing insights that traditional microscopes may miss.
