About Us
Tiny Bright Things is transforming the way we see (and measure) tiny things.
Existing microscopy tools trade-off spatial resolution against slow and complicated workflows, blunting the cutting edge of research and undermining modern manufacturing. By reimagining the way a scene is illuminated our Halo microscopy products deliver “impossible” imaging and measurement down to the nanoscale as fast as you can take a picture, enabling whole new fields of discovery and supercharging manufacturing with real-time process insights.
Our Vision
Our vision is to make tiny accessible to everyone so that we can all see and do more.
Our Mission
Our technology empowers users to see “impossible” things, enabling whole new fields of discovery and supercharging manufacturing.
Our Values
We value integrity, simplicity and curiosity.
That means we only build and sell products that are radically better than any alternatives; that everything we make must be simple to use, understand and buy; and that we have blanket permission to try “impossible” things and to get excited about what we discover.
