Problems solved by technology

However, ball joints and universal joints do have some play between the moving parts (such as the ball and socket) and the contacting surfaces will gradually wear down over time due to friction

Abstract

An imaging incident angle tracking device, including: a light source; a first and second beam splitters or dichroic mirrors; a position sensitive detector; wherein the first and second beam splittersor dichroic mirrors are configured to direct light from the light source to a window surface through an objective lens; the first and second beam splitters or dichroic mirrors is further configured todirect the light reflected from the window surface and through the objective lens into the position sensitive detector. A positioning system, including: a baseplate; a platform; a plurality of strutassemblies connecting the baseplate and the platform; wherein each of the strut assembly includes: a linear actuator; a first flexure assembly and a second flexure assembly at the first and second ends of the strut assembly; the first and second flexure assemblies are rigid along and flexibly bendable orthogonal to the length of the strut assembly.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 584,237, filed November 10, 2017, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention generally relates to an optical microscopy apparatus that images a portion of a large specimen with a curved profile that requires multiple axes of manipulation to bring the imaging system perpendicular to the specimen's current field of view. Background technique [0004] With most light microscopes, the objective and sample are mounted on separate stages. For imaging targets with complex contours, the stage can have up to six degrees of freedom to move the objective to the desired position taking into account the angle relative to the sample. For in vivo imaging applications that require imaging through a sample window, the imaging objective must be kept perpendicular to the window surface to maintain hi...
