Imaging Insects in Amber
|

|
|
Obtaining an image of the fossilized imprint of insects from prehistoric times trapped in amber is an exceedingly tricky task. In this case a depth of focus extension program was used to eliminate the blurring effects (left) to uncover publishable detail (right). A combination of reasonable quality optics and a high definition imaging system helped make the near impossible achievable with remarkable ease.

Particle size and shape analysis of sediments
|
 
|
|
Assessing the origins of alluvial deposits holds the key to the history of many geological events and time-lines. Here the particulates have been dispersed and analyzed for both size and shape characteristics. Allowing direct, statistical comparisons with samples gathered in other areas.

Confocal image reconstruction of fossilized bones
|
|
|
This example shows how a portable confocal microscope has been used to acquire images of 3 dimensional structures in fossilized bones. Using GT Vision’s extended focus products the partially focused images (top) were processed to provide one fully focused image (bottom).
