Claims14
A fluorescent microscope comprising:
- an objective lens that forms images of fine objects treated with fluorescent materials on a stage;
- a light source unit that irradiates to the fine objects;
- an image sensor that provides light matching coloring wavelengths of the fluorescent materials passing through the objective lens and converts the provided light into electrical signals;
- a display unit that receives the electrical signals from the image sensor and outputs them as images;
- a controller that controls a focus and a storing period of the images according to commands input by a user;
- and
- a wireless transmitter/receiver that wirelessly transmits the images to the outside and wirelessly receives commands input to the controller,
- wherein the stage, the objective lens, the light source unit, the image sensor, the display unit, the controller, and the wireless transmitter/receiver are integrally provided in one body.
