The ten innovations described below advance micros - CrystalView applications include aerospace, automotive, copy in the areas of light microscopy, electron microscopy, energy, geology, and medical prosthetics analysis. It can accelerate and scanning probe microscopy. These innovations will the development and acceptance of additive manufactured (AM) make microscopy more powerful, more productive, and parts in these fields and provide crystallographic information rap - easier to accomplish. idly for closed-loop process control for additive manufacturing of metals. The compact size and low power requirements of the CrystalView microscope will enable astronauts to perform more robust nondestructive evaluation (NDE) and structural health CrystalView Microscope monitoring of thermal-protection components and additively Advanced Optical Technologies, Inc. manufactured metal parts in space.
