Operating Simplicity that Guides Operators to Optimum Output, Regardless of Their Experience
The DSX100 provides a new way to see. No need to look through eyepieces, everything you need is on the screen. Operate the scope with a touch panel or mouse. What's more, virtually anyone of any experience level can use this interface to achieve their results in seconds. The system guides the operator from inspection to measurement to analysis to final report. Short, simple steps. Quick results.
Three User Modes Meet Operator Experience Levels and Job Demands
Select Tutorial, Operator or Advanced Mode to best match the experience of the operator and the job at hand. Operator Mode can be customized to speed up routine work. The operator's ID and password open the application, and automatically sets the system to the operator's preferred configuration, observation, analysis, and measurement settings.
 | Tutorial Mode Even first-time users can follow the suggestions of the system and it will create the image that meets their needs. |
 | Advanced Mode Provides the flexibility and power advanced users need while retaining an intuitive and simple to use interface. |
 | Operator Mode This customizable mode is ideal for routine work by eliminating all non-essential menus. |
New Touch Screen User Interface
 | In the past, an operator had to make complicated adjustments on their microscope to achieve their desired image; with DSX100, it's simple. Once the sample is in place, everything is controlled by touch screen or computer mouse - focus, zoom, brightness and light position. All controls are direct and easily performed. In addition, auto-focus and auto-gain ensure illumination and focus are correct. |
Optical Zoom Provides Both Close-up and Wide-angle Imaging
 Zoom in on your sample | Changes in magnification can be made as needed, even by small amounts. The DSX100 lens system provide a 16x digital zoom for a maximum magnification of 30x. |
The Free Angle Function Provides an Angled View without Touching the Sample
With conventional microscopes you have to move the sample in order to observe it from an angle, and often the microscope needs to be refocused. With the DSX100, merely tilt the head to change the viewing angle. The sturdy frame has a low center of gravity, provides extra stability. |
Quickly Guided to the Best Possible Output
Change observation methods or image processing with a single touch. Choose the image you want from the previews shown on the touch screen. A few simple steps let you perform the best possible observation very quickly.
Best Image Function Ensures Optimum Performance
Now you can operate your microscope just by choosing the image that fits your need. Ensuring the best possible image, whether looking for defects, examining uneven surface or detecting foreign objects. Anyone can operate the system, beginner or expert, with just a touch.
Best image - Just choose the image you want from the previews on the screen
HDR Gives High-Definition Images that Go beyond the Human Eye
Samples may appear differently depending on the quality of material, surface conditions, or illumination methods. The High Dynamic Range (HDR) function of the DSX100 combines several images taken at different exposures to accurately correct brightness differences on the sample surface. HDR provides high-fidelity images that show not only textures but also flaws and defects that were undetectable before. Glare can also be reduced for more comfortable observation.

WiDER Provides Easy Inspection of Samples with High Reflectance Difference
If the non-reflective area cannot be seen, merely increasing the illumination power is often not enough, because glare can occur. Olympus intelligent image processing technology eliminates these problems with WiDER, a proprietary system that works effectively with live images, is ready to go at the click of a button, and takes care of the contrast problems in real time. No blackouts. No glare.
When high contrast problems occur, a click lets you see everything in real time
Four-Segment LED Ring Light Makes Scratches and Defects Easy to See
The DSX uses long-life energy-saving LEDs for illumination. And because the color temperature is stable, there's no need to adjust white balance. The ring light is divided into quadrants that allow flexible control of illumination, making scratches and defects easier to find.
Simple Operation Lets You See What You Couldn't See Before
The DSX100 requires no extensive knowledge or special skills to show you exactly what you want to see. By calling on leading-edge electronic technology, you can now see what was unclear or impossible before.
Panoramic Images Include Areas beyond the Field of View
On the DSX100 there is no such thing as "outside the field of view." As the stage moves, the system automatically stitches images into a single large field of view, in real time. Where conventional microscopes reduce field area with increases in magnification, the Panoramic View maintains the original field while giving close-up clarity - with 2D, extended focus, or 3D.
Live Panorama - A large field can be easily stitched by moving the sample stage
3D Imaging Allows You to View Your Sample as It Actually Is*

Extended Focal Range Shows Everything
The DSX100 Extended Focal Image (EFI) maintains focus across the entire sample surface area. This makes uneven surfaces easy to inspect.

Color Enhancement Feature Shows You Only What You Want to See
Color enhancement allows you to isolate a particular color while making the rest of the image monochrome. Ideal for focusing on a particular defect.
Inspection is easier when you can highlight possible defects or contamination for inspection
Customizable Report Function Makes Generating Reports Simple and Easy
With DSX100, you can perform an observation or measurement, and the system will automatically generate your reports.
Olympus Long Experience Gives DSX Microscopes the Ability to See What Digital Microscopes Cannot
Olympus guarantees the reliability of DSX Microscope because they are born of Olympus optical and digital technology. Glare is minimized and color reproduction is real. To make sure of that, Olympus uses the perfect combination of CCD chip and graphic board. The sample is reproduced with such accuracy it's like a new dimension.
High-Quality Optics Let You See into Another Dimension
 The optical technology and dedicated lenses | The DSX Series is the culmination of Olympus long history of capabilities as well as proven manufacturing quality. In the clear images produced by the DSX100 opto-digital microscope, you'll find neither flare nor distortion, unheard of in other digital microscopes. |
Dedicated DSX100 Field Lenses Make High-Grade Image Dissection a Simple Matter
 | The objective lenses were designed and engineered specifically for the DSX100 scope - Olympus offers two versions, a 1x and a 3.6x. Illumination unevenness is virtually eliminated by high level aberration correction. Each lens has embedded LEDs that are designed to achieve optimal illumination from any angle. |
High Resolution 18MP Images Reproduced with a High-Performance CCD*
 High-performance CCD | Olympus High Performance CCD is the engine that shows exactly what our high-quality optics reveals. The image shift function ensures high fidelity with fine detail processing, so the clarity extends from corner to corner. |
Auto-Calibration Eliminates User Errors
 | Proper calibration is crucial to precise measurements, and with the Olympus DSX100, any operator can calibrate simply and accurately. This eliminates differences that naturally occur when different operators calibrate, and increases the reliability of measurements. In addition, the system's calibration report shows who did the calibration and when. |
Choice of 2D and 3D Measuring
 | The DSX100 microscope comes equipped with both 2D and 3D imaging capabilities. That means you can measure along the X, Y axis, or along X, Y, and Z axis. Observe, inspect, or measure from any angle. |
