Abstract. Digital image acquisition
and processing have been widely used on optical microscopy. Generally, a NTSC
commercial camera and framegrabber are used for performing image acquisition
and A/D conversion. This work proposes a low cost image acquisition for optical
microscopy applications, the SAIMO. SAIMO is a hardware and software image
acquisition system. The hardware is based on a webcam image sensor and the
software acquires microscopic images performing the preprocessing and grouping
images.
