Renishaw's inVia microscopes use a form of light scattering (Raman scattering) to analyse the chemical structure and composition of materials. It is of major benefit to academics and industrialists who use inVia to tackle analytical problems across a broad range of application areas, including: chemicals; materials science; pharmaceuticals; semiconductors; forensics; gemmology; antiquities; and green energy development, such as photovoltaics.

Renishaw has received a Queen's Award for Enterprise 2014 in the Innovations category for its inVia Raman microscope.
The inVia microscope rapidly generates high definition 2D and 3D chemical images for analysing materials.
This is Renishaw's seventeenth Queen's Award since its formation in 1973 and its eighth in just eleven years.
Sir David McMurtry, Renishaw's chairman and chief executive, said, this particular award is very special because it is the first to recognise Renishaw's achievements outside the field of industrial metrology.
He adds: "We are now benefitting from a long-term commitment to the development of the inVia system, which has become the Raman analysis system of choice for many of the world's most prestigious research institutions, and a contributor to global research in an exciting range of advanced materials applications, such as graphene."
