Heating Chambers & Miniature Incubators for Upright Microscopes

This video describes step-by-step how to make a custom miniature incubator / chamber for an upright automated biological/industrial microscope. The chamber allows control of temperature in the base, lid and objective lens, humidity and CO2/O2 and most importantly scanning a big area of samples (two 35mm petri-dishes, chamber slides, etc) automatically while the chamber is fully closed. The video talks about some challenges in terms of how to fit to the microscope and meet all requirements of having a closed chamber for motorized stage.
