Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a micro-scanning device that comprises a surface on which specimen to be scanned is positioned, and at least one micro lens configured to enable scanning of the specimen so as to obtain micro-details of the specimen. One or more micro lenses are installed below the flatbed surface in an array of movable configuration or in a stationary configuration. The device further incorporates a front panel to live-view micro-detail image of a specimen placed on the flatbed surface and incorporates means to focus, size, and zoom/scale the micro-detail image of the specimen. The device can be either a portable/handheld device or a stationary device and incorporates scan firmware to save and store or send copy of image incorporating micro-details on an associated/coupled computing device and/or in the internal memory of the scanner for performing any of stitching, printing, saving or sharing.
