I've been looking at digital microscopes for a while. This is the best solution for all the issues I saw with the cheap digital ones.

I've seen alot of 3d printable projects, but this is by far one of the coolest. You could add a lens removal hole sized for a 3 or 4 mm hex-Allen key. Can't wait to start printing this one.

Hey, this is so cool. I really respect your videos. Always interesting and show helpful. Best is that when you post, you make me want to try these out. Your MPCNC build was a good inspiration for me. Looking at lenses now to build me version.

nice short and crisp tutorial! Fantastic result. Mabye it would be nicer for the workspace to mount the raspberry 90 deg rotated? Then the cables would go out to the rear end :)

Once again you came up with a great idea beautifully presented. And spot on! Thank you! 😀

Amazing work, man. Simple but clever design! Congratulations 👍

Another incredible build thank you for sharing this

Great idea!!! I can build this right now with old regular pi and cam with long 30cm flat cable! Thanks!!!

Wow very nice dedication to explanation! Very good

Wow thank you for this brilliant idea!

Nice! I used an old optical microscope body from E-Bay... but this is a lot tidier.

I'm printing this now! Thank you!

Very nice ! You won't be able to get a deeper FOV from using a better lens, but you can improve flatness of field (edges will be as sharp as center).

This is legitimately really cool and useful, but yet so simple that pretty much anyone can do it. Well done. I think I've got all the parts laying around already so I'm going to make one of these soon.

Nice and I was just last week thinking that I should get microscope or very good magnifying glass. But this streaming into network and laptop might work pretty well or maybe 7" dedicated display. Anyway I think this is it and I was thinking that microscopes are quite expensive and cheap ones aren't very good. Gotta get parts. Huge thanks.

wow. Great idea!

great work and Idea . just need some upgrades in the next version.

You can use something like VNC viewer and get rid of the mini HDMI & micro USB, so you'll only need the power cable.

Great project Ty for share

Excelente proyecto, uno de los mejores 💪

Amazing Job.

Nice project! Still would be nice to know a bit more about the lens you used though.

Sounds like great scott

Perfect!

awesome, but it could be even better if you put a servo and an encoder on the z axis and a focus regulation mechanism.

Great idea! I think you could even improve on this by installing some of the machine learning/image recognition software on the rpi and have an instrument for counting and even recognizing electronic components, seeds, micro meteorites etc.

how cool. good enegingeeng!

Thanks bro

Very nice video and project, but links to every part would be helpful...

I really like this design. Are there any alternatives to the pi zero that can be used that you know of? I’ve been trying to get one for months but there is a shortage making it impossible.

Thanks, i am looking for a link to buy this stand or anything similar to this on ebay.

I bought a cheap set of wide angle lens for my pi camera. Hopefully it will improve the quality of my piscope

I think you should take a look at the OpenFlexure microscope project...

Good project but my dream is to adopted to soldering enviroment . Who, converted it to similar project usable for soldering, any sugestion , what lens to using?

FANTASTICO

hey do you have a link or something else for the base plate i can't find the same thx

Wunderbar

Very nice.. can u make a instructubles?

Very nice mod you have buildt id love to try this could you help me with this build just the electronic parts the rest is easy thanks

you can use a lens from a cheap usb microscope from aliexpress

With that code work if my raspberry pi 3B plus raspicam is not working for octo print

This is it!

Looks good except for the fact you gave to get so close to the pcb.

I can upgrade the sensor?

Which camera module is that exactly? I can't find it.

is the camera connect direct to the monitor?

Hello, does ti can work whit a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+?

good

There doesn't appear to be much working distance?

What kind of lenses does this use? C mount or c's mount?

How do you keep the pi part from dropping down? Is your axis that tight in the mount, or does your knob press against it?

@leonbrauns

The assembly is tight enough so that it doesn’t drop down due to its own weight.

Can someone please give me RP and camera parts links?

How is the latency?

What was the black filament you used? I love the finish on those parts!

What does the macro lens do?

Where to get this lense?

Is this GreatScotts! Second channel?

There is actually a Linux driver for making a GPIO into a dedicated shutdown button: www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/driver-api/gpio/drivers-on-gpio.rst. If the RPi has support for device tree overlay loading (or similar), then that should be simpler and more reliable than the Python script. But the Python script is probably OK 99.99% of the time ;)

Hallo, vor Jahren hatten wir bereits mal einen Kontakt und da wurde mir geholfen. Nun habe ich folgendes Problem. Ich möchte die Demontage eines komplizierten Uhrwerks (Durchmesser ca. 50 mm) auf Video festhalten. Die Kamera bzw. das Objektiv sollte ca. 500 bis 700 mm entfernt sein. Wäre so etwas optisch möglich? Gruß Holger

What camera lense did you use? I'm wanting to give this a go but im finding the smart phone macro lenses vary wildly in dimensions.

Not a fan of the hackaday platform. I don't even see a "download all files" :-/

Image looks good but way to less space betweens lens and camera. Not good for live working. Maybe with a different lens on there it could be a winner

Hi, schönes Projekt. Der Aufbau hat eigentlich problemlos geklappt!. Das einzige was bei mir nicht geht ist der Ausschalter. Ich habe auf den Zero das aktuelles Buster light Image drauf gemacht. Kann es sein das dort was anderes eingestellt werden muss für den Ausschalter?

Are wireless LAN and bluetooth abilities really mandatory? Can't Raspi Zero be sufficient? GREAT PROJECT. Despite my €200 HAYEAR HY-1070 which is gorgeous, I plan to use your project as an inspiration for a creative project. Thank you very much. I just followed you on hackaday.

You‘re right, for the microscope those abilities aren‘t needed. However I really appreciate having wireless LAN on-board for setting up and working with the Raspberry Pi over SSH without a dongle.

@@leonbrauns an interesting stuff, you can buy a bluetooth ttl adapter for arduino and connect it directly to tx and rx on the pi to get a hardware terminal over bluetooth, that's just great because you can connect to the pi terminal like if it was a wireless serial port
