Abstract

This project aims to develop microscope calibration slides using an Elegoo Mars 3D printer and Tinkercad for design. By employing 3D printing technology, customizable slides can be created that incorporate various patterns and features for calibration. The use of 3D printing offers a flexible, cost-effective alternative to traditional methods, enabling designs for various microscopy applications. The objectives include evaluating the accuracy and reproducibility of the printed slides and assessing their effectiveness in improving microscopy measurements. This work provides researchers with cost-effective, customizable tools for enhancing measurement reliability in microscopic studies across fields of physics and biology.
