DIY Cheap Reflector homemade project | microscópio diy desde que participei da primeira edição do curso biohack academy no garagem, eu vi que era possível fazer um microscópio de baixo custo apenas hackeando uma webcam velha e juntando materiais simples, desses que se encontram na papelaria. fiquei fascinado de cara, pois desde criança curto olhar coisas microscópicas, mas nunca tive um, nem nas escolas onde estudei. :’-( então o mundo diy bio veio me resgatar e vi que não existe só um, mas uma porrada de projetos bacanas de mics de baixo custo, mas qual vale a pena tentar fazer? testei váááááááários modelos em cursos e workshops no garagem e no meu querido olabi ao longo dos últimos anos. uns ficaram bons, outros uma merda, mas aprendi algumas coisas no caminho. a minha intenção aqui é dar uma compilada (não direi documentada, pois, pra variar, não documentei quase nada no processo…) e compartilhar com a geral. enjoy it! ficou lindão! ganha um prêmio quem souber o que é isso…conto no final do texto! cabeça de mosquito bunda de mosquito lentes
Google Earth Intros Tour Builder, A Cooler Way to Tell Stories Google Earth already lets viewers travel virtually to places around the world, but a new feature could change the way users tell stories about their own real-life travels. Tour Builder, still in its beta phase, allows users to weave narratives through photos, videos, text and Google Earth. Originally created as a way for U.S. military veterans to tell their stories, the tool, which only requires a Google account and the Google Earth desktop plug-in for Mac OS X or Windows, is now available for everyone. Google explained the idea behind Tour Builder on the Frequently Asked Questions section of the project's site: We originally created Tour Builder to give veterans a way to record all the places that military service has taken them, and preserve their stories and memories as a legacy for their families. But we also thought it could be a useful tool for anyone with a story to tell, so we made it available to everyone. Have something to add to this story? Image: Flickr, Quinn Dombrowski
Softboxes and a cheap alternative to them. Nimrud lens Hi reader in Canada, it seems you use Wikipedia a lot; I think that's great and hope you find it useful. This Wednesday we need your help. We depend on donations averaging $15, but fewer than 1% of readers give. If you donate just $3, you would help keep Wikipedia thriving for years. The price of your Wednesday coffee is all I ask. Our annual budget is minuscule compared to a lot of worthy causes, yet our impact is enormous. Maybe later Thank you! Close The Nimrud lens, also called Layard lens, is a 3000-year-old piece of rock crystal, which was unearthed in 1850 by Austen Henry Layard at the Assyrian palace of Nimrud, in modern-day Iraq.[3][4] It may have been used as a magnifying glass, or as a burning-glass to start fires by concentrating sunlight, or it may have been a piece of decorative inlay.[3] Description[edit] The Nimrud lens is on display in the British Museum.

Alex Sokolsky: DIY I just realized that I never properly documented any of my DIY projects - wearable flash rig, diffusion panel or light stand. Consider this in place of a "proper" documentation. I use a wearable flash rig to take photos in a bright sun and I built it specifically for Burning Man 2010. After this post was published I found an even more grandiose approach to a moveable lighting rig: Human Light Suit. The Golub Microscope Collection at the University of California, Berkeley
The Quest for the Invisible: Microscopy in the Enlightenment - Dr Marc J Ratcliff Infusoria Infusoria is a collective term for minute aquatic creatures such as ciliates, euglenoids, protozoa, unicellular algae and small invertebrates that exist in freshwater ponds. Some authors (e.g., Bütschli) used the term as a synonym for Ciliophora. In modern formal classifications, the term is considered obsolete; the microorganisms previously included in the Infusoria are mostly assigned to the kingdom Protista. Researchers have proposed that infusoria reproductive rates periodically increase and decrease over periods of time.[1] Aquarium use[edit] See also[edit] Animalcules References[edit] Bibliography[edit] Ratcliff, Marc J.

Anton van Leeuwenhoek - History of the compound microscope Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632 - 1723) was a Dutch tradesman and scientist, best known for his work on the development and improvement of the microscope and also for his subsequent contribution towards the study of microbiology. Using handcrafted microscopes, Anton van Leeuwenhoek was the first person to observe and describe single celled organisms, which he originally referred to as animalcules (which we now refer to as microorganisms). He was also the first to record and observe muscle fibres, bacteria, spermatozoa and blood flow in capillaries (small blood vessels). Born in Delft, the Netherlands, on October 24, 1632, Anton van Leeuwenhoek (in Dutch Antonie van Leeuwenhoek) was the son of a basket maker. At the age of 16, van Leeuwenhoek secured an apprenticeship with a cloth merchant in Amsterdam as a bookkeeper and casher.
