Abstract
A microscope having a night vision apparatus, which apparatus can be impinged upon by beam paths proceeding from a specimen or object to be observed.
Claims11
A microscope for observing an object, the microscope comprising:
- a first beam path proceeding from the object;
- a night vision apparatus impinged upon by the first beam path;
- a second beam path proceeding from the object and differing from the first beam path, wherein the night vision apparatus is also impinged upon by the second beam path;
- and
- a first superimposition device for superimposing a first image generated by the night vision apparatus into a first observation channel of the microscope and a second superimposition device for superimposing a second image generated by the night vision apparatus into a second observation channel of the microscope, the first and second images generated by the night vision apparatus being superimposed over respective optical viewing beam paths, the optical viewing beam paths being free of electric image sensors.
