A leader in the design and manufacture of innovative optical imaging equipment, Aurox has received multiple business and technology awards including, the Queen's Award for Enterprise, the Institute of Physics (IOP) Innovation award and the R&D100 award. Technology developed by the group has historically appeared inside several products from other major microscopy companies. The company is now forging ahead with its own further developed own branded products. Aurox's leading products are the Clarity-The Affordable Confocal Upgrade and the Unity-The All-in-One Benchtop Confocal. Clarity is the first in a portfolio of new products under development by Aurox. Its revolutionary design delivers affordable confocal microscopy to a wider user community through its ability to attach to any conventional microscope and to provide high quality 3D images acquired in real time. Unity is built on the same core imaging technology and is a leader in the development of a new range of confocal microscopy systems. Unity is a compact benchtop, All-in-One device that can be used in the open lab environment. These systems address specific market needs in applications ranging from live cell imaging to high content screening. Aurox products are designed to be financially accessible not only to imaging facilities but also to individual research groups.
