The focus control unit for the optical microscope

The aim of bachelor thesis was to focus on the issue of creating photos with great depth of field, which are developed on an electronically controlled optical microscope with photographic equipment. Arduino module with a series ATMega (Atmel Corporation) microcontroller, that was selected for management control device has been described in detail in the next section. Work includes the design and implementation of the control unit, which automates the process of capturing digital images from the microscope. The control unit contains a module Arduino with ATmega328 processor, which controls the stepper motor connected to focus of the JENAVERT microscope (Carl Zeiss). Device communicates with the user by buttons and LCD display
