The Frontier Microscopy Marvin asbestos-detecting microscope is a robotic microscope that has been developed to test air quality at demolition sites to protect workers from deadly asbestos fibres.

It eliminates manual processing of dangerous minerals. It uses artificial intelligence and a robotic microscope to screen air samples for asbestos fibres in a fraction of the time it takes humans.

The microscope is a custom-built robotic device, which does not include an eyepiece but instead takes up to 100 images across an entire sample in less than a minute. These images are automatically uploaded to the software where they are analysed for traces of asbestos.

The product reduces total analysis time from about 15 minutes to less than two minutes. It then stores the information on the cloud and formats it into a suitable document for relevant government bodies or companies.
