DIY microscope for cellphones

Aydogan Ozcan, an assistant professor of electrical engineering and member of the California NanoSystems Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles, has come up with a DIY design for a cellphone microscope, writing his very own software to work in tandem with off-the-shelf parts that cost no more than $10. There isn't any lens to worry about basically, as magnification will be handled by the software, holograms and electronics.
