Camera Project - Final Year(Beng)

[FONT="]Hi,

I have a project which i have only started recently and in still the research stage.

The problem put forward is to:[/FONT]

  • [FONT="]Integrate a very small camera (between 1-3 megapixel) in an existing microscope (a very big microscope which is fixed to the table & floor)[/FONT]

  • [FONT="]Be able to control basic camera functions from outside, e.g. take picture & focus. I have option of wires connection to outside control box or wireless connection(Bluetooth?)[/FONT]

  • [FONT="]I have a budget of max £150 ish, and should not require to advanced skill. Think of it as a graduate level or similar.[/FONT]
[FONT="]
I goggled and looked through many options and routes, but not yet found a viable and good option.

If somebody could please point in some direction or give me an idea of how to go about finding a solution.

Basically, somehow control a camera from outside the microscope and display on sometype of monitor/screen. Preferable Digital.


Thank You, any help will be much appreciated.[/FONT]

    Hey rizler,
    I really like your idea. I think following video can help you. Just use microscope instead of telescope used in video.

    please reply if you have any further queries.

    Thank You for the reply. It was helpful to some extent.

    After spending more time behind this project, i have come to know that i now need to find out if it's possible to detach the CCD/lens from the main microchip/IC of the camera and conenct them via wires.
