USB digital microscope is a kind of microscope that has the capability to be linked directly to a computer to view the images generated by the microscope. This feature provides maximum flexibility regarding the usage of the microscope. This type of microscope displays the image on the computer, rather than looking through the oculars to see the magnified image of the specimen.
The USB digital microscopes can be compared to a miniaturized camera that is equipped with 3 levels of magnification. The user can zoom in and out on the magnification level, which can provide magnifying power starting with 100x up to 300x. This kind of microscope can produce clear resolutions of the specimen under study.
One very vital function of this kind of microscope is that, it can store images of the specimen for future retrieval or can be shared instantly with other people since it is connected to a computer.
