Publisher Description
Displays and captures beautiful images and videos from the ioLight high resolution portable microscope.
Laboratory microscopes produce beautiful images, but cost over £3,000 and are difficult to use. Cheap microscopes do not have enough resolution for professional use or teaching. ioLight has developed a digital microscope, with a resolution of better than 1μm, which produces beautiful pictures of animal and plant cells and displays them directly onto your tablet or mobile phone.
The ioLight microscope has worldwide patents pending.
Please go to iolight.co.uk to buy your high resolution portable microscope. Follow us on social media, @iolightmicro
Version History Updated QR code for support and install documentation 1.9 Mar 10 Change onboarding screens to allow connection of microscope using ethernet 1.8 Feb 26 We've fixed an issue related to timeouts experienced by some users during timelapse, and we've change the behaviour at the end of timelapses so that lights remain off until the end of the timelapse is acknowledged by the user. 1.7 08/26/2025 This update adds time-lapse imaging which enables the ioLight microscope to record images over the course of hours or days, which is really useful for studying cell development amongst other applications.
Z-Stack imaging is also added. This feature enables a sequence of 9 images at different focus positions to be automatically recorded. These 9 images can then be ‘stacked’ into a single image composed of the in-focus parts of each image by using third party software such as ImageJ, Photoshop or Helicon Focus. Z-Stack image sets can be recorded both on taking a still image or time-lapse by holding the still image or time-lapse buttons.
The image grid can now be set to a range of values suitable for different ioLight microscopes. The grid will be stored on the saved image.
The image file names have been changed to include date, time and (for Z-stack) focus position. This makes it easier to keep track of images and enables time-lapse and time-lapse Z-stack image sets to be easily imported into ImageJ. 1.6 04/03/2024 Added support for iOS 13. 1.5 11/13/2019 Fixed bug with image capture preview dismissal. 1.4 03/09/2018 The app is now available for both iPhone and iPad devices. The instruction screens and controls layouts have also been updated. 1.3 11/15/2016 When the app is installed, it now has high resolution preview image mode off.
High resolution preview can be switch on from iPad settings app, then scrolling down to the ioLight app section and switch high resolution mode on. This does not affect still images recorded - these are always 5mp high resolution. This setting does affect the resolution of recorded videos.
The reason for this change is that most users don't notice a significant difference to the preview image, but it prevents the live preview being slow if there is a lot of WiFi 'noise' present in the place where you are using the microscope. 1.1 08/05/2016 1.0 06/30/2016
