Stereo microscopes products are able provide users with a magnified three-dimensional visualisation of a sample being analysed. However, the degree of magnification is up to 10 times lower than conventional mono compound microscopes, rendering them less useful for many applications, such as life science applications whereby users must interact with biological components on the cellular level. Due to the underlying physics and the mechanical constraints of conventional stereo microscope arrangements, it is not possible to appreciably improve beyond current state-of-the-art magnification levels without significantly impacting image clarity and resolution. Vision Engineering Ltd (VE), a global leading-edge manufacturer of stereo microscopes and non-contact measuring systems proposes to develop a new technology, called High-Power Stereo, which will achieve high-resolution stereo imaging at comparable magnitudes to state-of-the-art compound mono microscopes (up to 1000x), a so-far unsurmountable challenge with huge commercial potential.

体视显微镜产品能够为用户提供被分析样品的放大三维可视化。然而，放大倍数比传统的单复合显微镜低10倍，使得它们对于许多应用不太有用，例如生命科学应用，其中用户必须在细胞水平上与生物成分相互作用。由于传统体视显微镜布置的基础物理和机械约束，不可能在不显著影响图像清晰度和分辨率的情况下明显地提高超过当前最先进的放大率水平。全球领先的体视显微镜和非接触式测量系统制造商Vision Engineering Ltd（VE）提出开发一种名为High-Power Stereo的新技术，该技术将实现与最先进的复合单显微镜（高达1000倍）相当的高分辨率立体成像，这是迄今为止无法克服的挑战，具有巨大的商业潜力。
