Claim One:
1. A Fourier ptychographic imaging system comprising: an illumination system including an array of light sources; a plate receiver system configured to receive a multi-well sample plate including an array of sample wells, and to align the multi-well sample plate with the array of light sources such that each sample well is capable of receiving light from a corresponding plurality of the light sources; an optical system including at least one array of lenses, each lens configured to receive light from a corresponding sample well; an imaging system including an array of image sensors, each image sensor configured to receive light from a corresponding lens and to acquire image data based on the received light; and a controller configured to: cause, for each scan of a plurality of scans, the illumination system to illuminate the array of sample wells in parallel and such that each of the sample wells is illuminated with light at an angle of incidence different than in the other scans of the plurality of scans; cause, for each scan of the plurality of scans, the image sensors to acquire image data for the respective sample wells in parallel based on the illumination; and perform a Fourier ptychographic operation to generate a reconstructed image for each of the sample wells based on the image data acquired for the respective sample well from the plurality of scans.
