Thomas Larson is looking to break into the camera phone attachment market and inspire a new generation of scientists with the Micro Phone Lens, an adhesive add-on lens that offers 15X optical magnification from a tiny footprint.
In a similar way to the Strap-on Macro Lens, the Micro Phone Lens trades off the performance of larger devices like the ProScope Micro against the convenience of being so small that you hardly notice it.
Measuring only 1/4 inch (6 mm) in diameter, the device is essentially a tiny sticker that goes right over the camera’s lens. It is washable, removable and reusable, so you won’t have to lock it into one specific smartphone or tablet.
