Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to optical instruments and methods with a head mounted camera on a subject to provide a compact and lightweight solution to imaging specimen from the brain of a subject thereby providing closer proximity imaging with minimal or negligible effect to the subject's ability to physically move and rotate freely. The head mounted camera includes a light source for illuminating light through a beamsplitter to an image lens implant, which has been surgically inserted in the brain of the subject. The head mounted camera also includes an image sensor for imaging the top surface of the imaging lens implant and for capturing and transmitting images of neurons from deep inside the brain of the subject to the image sensor.
