Laser Scanning Spectral Confocal Microscope Teardown

 

 
Mike has purchased a huge piece of electro-mechanical gear. Looks like this Laser Scanning Spectral Microscope would have cost the same as a small house at one time. Interesting to see how much in in this box of goodies. In the first video Mike goes over the internals of the system, in the 2nd video he gets the argon laser to fire! It takes a killowatt of power so this is no joke. If you want to know more Confocal Microscopes the last video gives a great overview.
