Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0055667A1] An image processing system for optical systems including microscopes which separately captures (grabs) different portions of the electromagnetic spectrum as emitted from an object as separate images. Each of the separate images are individually focused and then aligned with the other images to produce a composite image. In one embodiment, the different portions correspond to red, green, and blue and the composite image is displayed to the user on as a monitor without any need for an eye-piece.
