Work better for longer

Mantis' superior microscope ergonomics allows higher levels of concentration and lowers fatigue to give you better performance.
It enables relaxed, stress-free viewing and the eyepiece-less design reduces eye activity, and thus eye strain.

Manipulate your subject easily with long working distance, accurate 3D view, and quick magnification change.

Eyepiece-less design

Mantis eyepiece-less technology projects a large high quality 3D image directly to your eye, making it easier to see and more comfortable to view than a binocular stereo microscopes.

The clarity of the 3D image supports enhanced hand-eye coordination, making subject manipulation with tools more accurate, faster and more efficient.

You can even wear corrective or protective eyewear without loss in performance.

Dynamic View Optics (DVO)

Mantis' unique Dynamic View Optics enables a stereo view, which changes as you move your head.
See the sides of a subject as well as the top to gain a greater level of information and understanding.

Postural comfort

Patented eyepiece-less technology delivers a large image at a position in which the operator sits upright to view.
This is a major advantage over traditional microscope image viewing positions, and reduces strain on the operator's back, neck, and shoulders, Additionally, because the image is comparatively large, the user's head is not required to be in a fixed position, also improving working comfort.

Hand-eye coordination

The distinctive stereo view of Mantis gives users access to both the direct view of the subject, and also to their peripheral vision.
This enhanced view helps users to understand the shape and form of the subject, and also the position of the tools they are using to work on the sample.

Maximised eye comfort

The distance from the Mantis to the user's eye allows access to ambient light, reducing iris activity when working.

Users can wear corrective or protective eye glasses with no loss of performance.

No eyepieces and simple controls which can be operated whilst wearing hand protection, supports 'no-touch' viewing.
The separation from the system to the user's eye reduces the risk of cross contamination and eye infection.

Mantis can be shared between multiple operators more safely, reducing operator risk.
Mantis can be used in otherwise inaccessible environments such as laminar flow cabinets.

Easy to use

Mantis has few, simple to operate controls to ensure that every user quickly and effectively becomes confident with the instrument.

Rotating the multi-view turret allows three different magnifications of your subject with a simple operation.

Perfect stereo view every time

The simple inter pupillary distance (IPD) control ensures that every user has the perfect stereo view, every time. Simply rotate the control until the binocular image aligns with your eyes.

High performance digital imaging for collaboration, traceability and training

Use Mantis PIXO's integrated high quality microscope camera to share your image to a screen. Capture, review, analyse and share high quality images, including annotations, in real time, to improve reporting and communication.

Maximise working effectiveness by adding digital overlays to compare live images with targets, measures or pre-set guides.
