Leica AirLab 2.0 makes life easy in the Microscopy Classroom by keeping students interested with the latest technology. Leica AirLab recognizes the WiFi signal from select Leica cameras and allows several users to simultaneously capture, annotate, measure, share, and organize the images. This contributes to collaborative learning and eliminates waiting time for shared microscopes. The HD quality live image combined with the 5 MP maximum capture resolution delivers the best image quality for studying the finest details. Image adjustments, Customization of Annotation appearance, and Calibration for measurements can be done on both the live and captured images for professional results. Download AirLab 2.0 and get started with the already installed Gallery images and video clips.

Not a well designed app, a poor system in general
09/19/2023

This app is poorly designed, lacks intuitiveness, and is frustrating to use. It has a very outdated interface and the menu system is a mess. Annotating images can be a nightmare. I have college students working with this app and if they get frustrated and find it difficult to learn the system then something is not right.We use this app with ipads connected via wifi with the leica scope cameras. I have no idea why in the year 2023 the camera connects via wifi and not bluetooth. The wifi is glitchy and so slow it can take minutes for the app to update the live view especially when you have more than five cameras on at once. The app loses connection with the camera after a certain period of time (sometimes in as little as 5-10 minutes), and we have to go back in and reconnect them again. Sometimes the app will only show a black or very dark screen. Even after adjusting the brightness, condenser, exposure, gamma, and light out put of both the scope and the app it still will not change. In this case the whole camera needs to be restarted. To be honest I'm not sure if more of the issue lies with the camera, the app, or both. But regardless something in the setup prevents this from being a smooth and enjoyable system.If you are using a single scope in a room then this app and system should be fine (interface is still not user friendly at all). But if you want to work with more than one scope going at a time, don't bother with wifi, just get laptops and use the desktop software.

Truly awful

This app basically doesn’t work. After much finagling I can get it to connect to the camera and capture an image. However, this process isn’t easy, usually doesn’t work at all, and even when it does, most of the on screen buttons appear to have no function. The interface is not at all intuitive and I am very disappointed that this is the software support myself and the college get after spending thousands of dollars on Leica microscopes and cameras. I will not be going with this brand of microscope or software in the future.

Leica needs to address their pc and phone software, we are in 2026 and they offer software that is considered buggy in 2009. it’s not only outdated and buggy, it straight up doesn’t work most of the time.This is shameful from a brand with such premium prices on their microscopes
