Macroscopic Solutions, LLC

Our innovation is called the Macropod technology and it uses the image generation technique of focus stacking to produce 2D imagery and 3D models that are completely in focus, color accurate and high resolution.  There is another technology akin to focus stacking called plenoptics which uses an optical array to refocus light in front of a cameras’ sensor.  This is a low-resolution and low-light technique that we are not currently exploring.  Instead, we are part of a large, but relatively small group of hobbyists, researchers and professionals who use focus stacking software and hardware solutions designed to capture images of microscopic and macroscopic sized objects without having limitations in depth-of-field, color and resolution.
