Phase Focus Raises £3.2 Million To Accelerate Revenue Generation Of Its Revolutionary Virtual Lens Imaging And Microscopy Technology :: Phase Focus
Summary
The Phase Focus Virtual Lens\xae is redefining imaging and microscopy by eliminating the limitations and imperfections of conventional lenses, and by revealing with high fidelity and accuracy an additional dimension of information about the specimen that is otherwise usually hidden. Currently being used for the analysis of specimens that are conventionally difficult to measure, such as transparent soft contact lenses and unstained living cells, the Virtual Lens is also expected to revolutionise the viewing of atomic-scale features that are beyond the limit of todays most powerful electron and X-ray microscopes. Commenting on the investment, Ian Pykett, CEO of Phase Focus, said: We are delighted to welcome such a prestigious new investor and the skills and experience that Ombu will bring to our management team. Stephen Brooke, CEO of Ombu Group added: This is a fantastic opportunity for us to partner with a company with remarkable technology that has just broken through into its full commercial phase. The development of nanotechnology applications requires the ability to analyse and visualise at the atomic scale, and the Phase Focus Virtual Lens has the potential to meet this market need and become a truly disruptive imaging technology, bringing greater fidelity, accuracy and magnifying power to bear in manufacturing industries as diverse as life sciences and semiconductor fabrication.For further information, please visit www.phasefocus.com or contact: Ian Pykett, CEO Tel: +44 (0)7985 042 392Phase Focus Limited, based in Sheffield UK, is commercialising a disruptive lensless imaging technology (the Phase Focus Virtual Lens\xae) which uses a proprietary mathematical algorithm to generate images from the diffraction pattern generated by an illuminated beam on transmission through or reflection from a specimen.
