Get the ergonomic advantage... Businesses choose Lynx EVO because they know their operators are more efficient, more accurate and more productive. The operator benefits and so does the business. Stunning 3D (stereo) imaging The Lynx EVO advantage begins with stunning 3D (stereo) imaging, viewed through an ergonomic viewing lens. Patented eyepiece-less optical technology allows users to move within the optical path, effectively looking around the subject, further enhancing the 3D view and depth perception. A natural view of the subject With conventional ‘eyepiece’ stereo microscopes, users must position their eyes extremely close to the eyepieces, blocking out ambient light. The intense light exiting the eyepieces causes the pupils to contract. It is this constant opening and closing of the pupils which is the main cause of eye fatigue, leading to headaches. With the eyepiece-less design of Lynx EVO, users sit back from the viewer, allowing ambient light into the eyes, providing an entirely natural view of the subject. Ability to wear glasses With Lynx EVO, operators do not need to remove their glasses (or safety glasses) to use the microscope. In fact, you can easily use Lynx EVO in a laminar flow, or safety cabinet. Protection against cross-infection and sample contamination By removing the contact between eyepieces and the user, Lynx EVO is kept clean, also preventing user contamination affecting sensitive samples in clean and sterile environments. Ergonomic working position An ergonomic working position not only makes Lynx EVO much more comfortable and much less fatiguing, but also much easier to use. Optimal operator ergonomics minimises the risk of repetitive strain-related injuries. A happy worker is a productive worker. Freedom of head movement An additional benefit of Vision Engineering’s patented eyepiece-less design is that users do not need to precisely align their eyes with the viewing lens. This freedom of movement reduces the neck and back strain associated with a fixed body position required when using a binocular stereo microscope with eyepieces. Easy hand-eye co-ordination Sitting back from the viewing lens provides users with much better peripheral vision, allowing natural hand-eye co-ordination, critical for precision inspection tasks, re-work, repair, dissection and other manipulation activities.

How Lynx EVO works... Dynascope® inside Lynx EVO employs an evolution of Vision Engineering’s patented Dynascope® eyepiece-less optical projection technology. Dynascope technology removes the need for conventional microscope eyepieces, providing the user with brilliant, high contrast imaging, unrivalled ergonomic performance and amazing ease of use. Dynascope® technology explained Lynx EVO is a true optical stereo microscope. High resolution, true-colour optical images are viewed through an ergonomic eyepiece-less viewing head. Light reflects from the patented Dynascope optics, exiting the single viewing lens as twin (stereo) light paths. The large diameter of these exit rays means that users do not need to precisely align their eyes with the viewing lens in order to see the image. The result is an incredibly easy-to-view, high resolution stereo (3D) image. Without the need for eyepieces. Did you know? At the heart of Vision Engineering’s patented Dynascope® eyepiece-less technology is a spinning multi-lenticular (multi-lens) disc. On the surface of the disk there are more than 3.5 million individual lenses (known as lenticules), which act as independent image-forming surfaces. Each individual lens has a diameter of just a few microns (1 micron = 0.001mm). The multi-lenticular disk spins at high speed to merge the millions of individual optical paths into a highclarity image. Twin (stereo) optical paths projected from the Dynascope ® viewing head.
