Resolution

Resolution is a powerful Chrome extension designed for microscopists to characterize objective lenses accurately. By inputting parameters such as magnification, numerical aperture (NA), immersion medium, and wavelength, users can calculate lateral and axial resolution, as well as fluorescence brightness. The tool ensures your microscope's image acquisition system is optimally matched by analyzing camera settings including pixel size and binning to confirm Nyquist sampling.

This extension supports major brands like Zeiss, Leica, Nikon, Olympus, and more. Users can save and share objective data through email or social networks. It also provides access to theoretical and practical calculations based on renowned formulas such as Ernst Abbe’s equation and the Rayleigh Criterion, with equation sources referenced within the app. Ideal for professionals and enthusiasts seeking precision in microscopy imaging, Resolution enhances understanding and optimization of microscope systems.
