Model eye imaging by closed-loop accumulation of single scattering (CLASS) microscopy

‘Closed-loop accumulation of single scattering (CLASS)’ microscopy provides novel solutions to the problems of light scattering and aberration in optical imaging, providing increased imaging depth while maintaining diffraction limited resolution. This method has a great potential to increase imaging depth and resolution of current eye imaging. In this presentation, the strength and weakness of the CLASS microscopy over the current adaptive optical microscopy will be discussed. Important factors to apply CLASS microscopy to eye imaging and the possibility to imaging retina in turbid condition will be discussed by using model eye

Biomimetic Thermal-sensitive Multi-transform Actuator

Controllable and miniaturised mechanical actuation is one of the main challenges facing various emerging technologies, such as soft robotics, drug delivery systems, and microfluidics. Here we introduce a simple method for constructing actuating devices with programmable complex motions. Thermally responsive hydrogels based on poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and its functionalized derivatives (f-PNIPAM) were used to control the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) or the temperature at which the gel volume changes. Techniques for ultra-violet crosslinking the monomer solutions were developed to generate gel sheets with controllable crosslink density gradients that allowed bending actuation to specified curvatures by heating through the LCST. Simple molding processes were then used to construct multi-transform devices with complex shape changes, including a bioinspired artificial flower that shows blossoming and reverse blossoming with a change in temperature
