This changes everything.
The world’s first imaging Microhub. Mica
More than a highly automated microscope, Mica unites widefield and confocal imaging in a sample protecting, incubating environment. With the simple push of a button, you have everything you need - all in one place - to supercharge fluorescence imaging workflows and get meaningful scientific results faster.
What if every scientist could access spatial information?
Mica empowers every researcher to move from set up to beautifully visualized results and analysis efficiently, accurately, and confidently.
Now you can focus on your science, not on figuring out your microscope.
- Access for all
- No constraints
- Radically simplified workflows
No constraints - 4x more data with 100% correlation
The Microhub enables you to simultaneously capture all 4 labels or different structures in a single acquisition for both widefield and confocal, without ever moving your sample. This overcomes the spatiotemporal mismatch between labels of moving objects during sequential acquisition.

No constraints - Select the right modality in real time
Mica unifies transmitted and fluorescence light imaging modalities. You can select from multiple imaging modalities all within one Microhub, including widefield, confocal, THUNDER imaging, LIGHTNING, Z-stacks, time-lapse and more.
This enables you e.g., to generate fast overviews with widefield at low magnification, gradually zoom in on the regions of interest, and switch to confocal when and where needed without ever moving the sample to a different system.
- Seamlessly move from fast overview to high resolution when required by your experiment
- Switch from widefield to confocal mode with just a simple click without ever moving your sample

No constraints - Achieve physiological-like conditions thoughout your experiments
Live cell experiments require the cells to be in optimal shape. Typically, 2D and 3D cells in media require the temperature and the pH (via CO2) in the environment to be controlled. Stable nutrition and ion concentrations require the evaporation to be minimal. Some experiments even demand the O2 to be mimicked closer to physiological levels. Mica can provide the right conditions in the live cell configuration.
- Maintain your sample in optimal conditions and minimize evaporation
