Abstract

A method for automatically determining a plurality of positions in a sample arrangement in the object space of a microscope that includes a microscope objective defining an optical axis is provided. A measurement beam is generated by a measurement beam device and directed at the sample arrangement, and a measurement beam reflected by the sample arrangement is detected by a detector, which produces an output signal. The sample arrangement is displaced in at least one direction perpendicular to the optical axis. The plurality of positions in the sample arrangement is determined on the basis of the displacement by means of output signals of the detector generated during the displacement in the at least one direction.
