A method of operating a surgical microscope includes detecting an amount of movement of a body portion of a user, and performing movements of a camera and changes in a magnification based on the detected movements of the body portion. The amounts of these movements and changes decrease with increasing magnification provided by the surgical microscope, they decrease with decreasing distance of the body portion of the user from the display, and they decrease with decreasing distance of the cameras from the field of view of the cameras.

A medical projection apparatus includes: a plurality of projectors each configured to project projection light onto an observation area of an observation optical system, wherein at least two or more projectors of the plurality of projectors are configured to respectively emit projection light to different planes including an optical axis of the observation optical system, and the projection light emitted by the two or more projectors cross each other in any position within a range of at least a possible working distance of the observation optical system.

Methods and systems are provided herein for a surgical optical system having a heads up display including, in accordance with various embodiments, an optical device, an image sensor optically coupled to the optical device to acquire image data from a field of view of the optical device, and a display device configured to display an acquired image representing the image data acquired by the image sensor.

A method for operating a medical-optical display system for displaying an object image of an observed object is made available, said object image having been obtained by means of a medical-optical observation apparatus wherein the medical-optical display system comprises a data superimposition unit for superimposing data of at least one image data record into the object image. The method comprises the following steps: determining at least one region with little activity within the object image and superimposing the at least one image data record into the at least one region with little activity.

An optical detection device having a light detection device and a light emission device is arranged such that the light detection side of the light detection device is optically coupled to a light emission side of a light source array of the light emission device via an examination region. The light detection device generates an electrical signal n response to light that reaches the light detection side. The light source array includes a plurality of separately actuatable electric light sources which are arranged in a matrix structure or two dimensional geometric arrangement. The object to be examined can be arranged in a desired fashion, and the light emitted by the light sources radiates via the examination region on the light detection side of the light detection device. An optical reduction is system is arranged in the beam path from the light emission side to the examination region and is configured to demagnify the light pattern which is emitted by the light sources. Thus, the examination region is irradiated by a light pattern that has been demagnified with respect to the light pattern emitted.

A microscope system includes an eyepiece, an objective, a tube lens, an imaging apparatus, a projection apparatus that projects a projection image onto an image plane between the tube lens and the eyepiece on which an optical image is formed, and a control apparatus. The control apparatus manages microscope information including at least a first magnification at which an image of the sample is projected onto the image plane, a second magnification at which an image of the sample is projected onto the imaging apparatus, a third magnification at which an image of the projection apparatus is projected onto the image plane, and sizes of the imaging apparatus and the projection apparatus. The control apparatus includes a processor. The processor generates projection image data representing the projection image based on at least the microscope information.

An apparatus, method and storage medium for controlling a pathologic microscope are provided. The method includes obtaining a pathological digital image from an incident optical path of the pathologic microscope; performing artificial intelligence (AI) analysis on the pathological digital image to generate AI analysis information; and controlling an augmented reality (AR) projection component to project the AI analysis information on a microscopic field of the pathologic microscope on an outgoing optical path.

An instrument for imaging a specimen or a portion of a specimen is configured to capture multiple image frames of the portion of the specimen being scanned using Moving Specimen Image Average (MSIA) to create one or more image strips. The instrument is configured to use an active area of a two dimensional sensor array that covers substantially all of the width of the sensor array but less than a length. The one or more image strips are created from the multiple image frames as each of the multiple image frames is captured. Preferably, the instrument is configured to remove blurring, caused by distortion of the optics, by software or by warping a grid of the two dimensional detector array, including TDI array.
