Abstract

The domain of forensic science, dermatology, and regenerative medicine critically relies on the precise replication of human skin details. Nevertheless, conducting on-site analysis poses challenges due to the stringent requirements for stability, accuracy, and the use of safe imaging materials. Current skin imaging methodologies are hindered by the inherent limitations of their hardware components, particularly when it comes to capturing the intricate, micrometer-scale textures of human skin. To address these challenges, we develop a low-cost (
