profiling, polarization imaging, hyperspectral imaging, x-ray imaging,
fluorescent imaging and optical histology.
iOptron has established a major operation in China under the name of Nanjing iOptron Scientific, Inc.
While serving as a manufacturing base for iOptron's imaging products,
Nanjing iOptron itself is pioneered and specialized in astro imaging
instrumentation, with the GoToNova™ (formerly known as GoToStar™), an
intelligent auto tracking telescope system, being its flagship product
line.
Dr. Jiang stated: "We See It Better™ because our vision
is enhanced through microscope to telescope, utilizing polarization and
florescence, and from visible to infrared. With dedication and
intelligence, we provide our customers with a complete imaging solution
of the highest standard."
