I came upon this in one of my classes from research done by a student. This
has been developed by an optical researcher at UCLA. The technology is known
as "Lensless Ultra-wide-field Cell monitoring Array platform based on Shadow
imaging" (LUCAS). The process uses an imaging chip and analyzes the
diffraction pattern of the cells in the image. They have produced a cell phone
that can image a blood sample and do cell counts. The interesting thing for
astronomy may be the analytical algorithims that are being used on the image.
It is a the very least a fascinating technology. The website below is a news
release on the technology for UCLA.
