My team designed this OCT system to enable continuous and non-contact cell culture monitoring. I designed and built a functional OCT system at a fraction of commercial cost, that was tailored to the specific project requirements. Prototype was designed balancing tight time-line for initial results while paving the way for future scalable production.

Goals

• Reliable OCT engine with a high frame rate and hardware for fast auto-focusing

• Increase functionality from buggy commercial unit

• Allow for custom attachments depending on specific client needs
