Abstract

This chapter presents an introduction to microscopy techniques and methodologies that are applicable for the study of active colloidal systems. It begins with a primer of optical imaging, to further describe quantitative and statistical analysis methods, providing insights into the individual and collective dynamics of active colloids. A modern dual perspective, examining both direct and reciprocal space analyses, is offered.
