Do I see correctly that this opportunity is still open?
Website says until 15. august now.
We are experimenting (@gaudi @dusjagr ) with a new concept for a low-cost diy microscope using esp-32 and cam, hack the lens and a simple stage setup using PCB materials taht can be assembled into a solid stage structure.
Anybody interested to join the development?
We think the “old” approach with webcams attached to a laptop is a bit outdated.
Using the ESP & cam easier globally, where people usually only have a smart phone. so we can look at the stream in the webbrowser of the phone, and record higher res images to the onboard sd-card.
adding some simple tools for measurements and calibration should be easy with a webapp.
