Multifocus microscope pushes the limits of fast live 3D biological imaging

Researchers have developed a high-speed 3D imaging microscope that can capture detailed cell dynamics of an entire small whole organism at once. The ability to image 3D changes in real time over a large field of view could lead to new insights in developmental biology and neuroscience.

Surgical microscope uses 48 tiny cameras to offer precise 3D imaging

For over a century, surgeons performing delicate procedures have relied on stereoscopic microscopes to gain a sense of depth. These tools mimic human vision by presenting slightly different images to each eye, allowing the brain to perceive three-dimensional structures—a crucial aid when working with fragile blood vessels or intricate brain tissue. Despite modern upgrades like digital displays and video capture, today's operating microscopes still depend on the same core principle: two views, interpreted by the human brain.

I’m going to have this baby face #lightfield of me for decades to come. I want more memories captured with this fidelity, and in motion. This portrait required me sitting still for a minute as a camera on automated rail captured me. It’s surreal how quickly science fiction becomes science fact. #LookingGlassGo #lookingglass #lkg #ComputationalPhotography

Гауссов сплэтинг: как это выглядит

#3D #rendering #lightfield

Всплеск внимания к технике сплэтинга связан с представленной в августе этого года статьей 3D Gaussian Splatting for Real-Time Radiance Field Rendering [Трёхмерный гауссов сплэтинг для рендера radiance field в реальном времени] (https://repo-sam.inria.fr/fungraph/3d-gaussian-splatting/). До этого, в июле, эта научная работа исследователей Университета Лазурного берега, Института информатики Общества Макса Планка и французского Национального института исследований в информатике и автоматике вошла в пятёрку лучших работ SIGGRAPH 2023.

Rudbeckia flowers in front of the barn, take 2: similar to

but instead of using a wide-open 50mm lens I used a Lytro Illium light field camera, not only the first photo I took with the Illium that I thought was usable but also used the "refocusing" gimmick well
