Application of camera lucida

Explanation:

  • Camera lucida is an optical device which when connected to a compound microscope can help a person to draw the image of an object in scale with the actual object by tracing on the superimposed image.
  • It is comprised of a plane mirror and prism.
  • The image of the object under the microscope falls on the prism.
  • The prism refracts the image onto the plane mirror.
  • The plane mirror next reflects the image on the paper.
  • The person can trace this image to draw the appropriate picture of the object .
  • It can be used attached to a microscope to draw :
  1. images of cells, bacteria, etc present on the slide which is being observed.
  2. the structure of microscopic crystals of organic or inorganic molecules to be used for X-ray crystallography.
