Meiji Techno Digital CMOS Video Cameras


CMOS digital camera technology from Meiji Techno! With scientific grade, defect free sensors, these high quality cameras are designed to be a cost-effective versatile solution for documentation of microscopy imaging where high resolution is required. The DK Series cameras have great sensitivity and very low noise figures. The included software features include auto and manual white balance, full exposure control and ROI (region-of-interest). The DK Series delivers outstanding image quality for a wide variety of production or scientific applications.
Some of the many features of the DK Series include:
  • High Speed USB2.0 interface  - eliminates having to install cards or other hardware.
  • Low noise image sensors deliver crisp color quality for the most demanding brightfield and darkfield microscopy applications including clinical pathology and cytology, life sciences and geology.
  • Full color sub-windowing allows for rapid focus and scanning of samples.
  • Selectable 8 & 10 bit pixel Data modes.
  • Each pixel contains 30 bits of color image information resulting in 1024 intensity values per color.
  • Industry standard TWAIN interface results in rapid image capture for archiving and documentation, high throughput applications, demanding research environments and teaching facilities.
  • Drivers and plugins allow support for MatLab R2006, LabView and Image Pro platforms.
  • Compact design features standard "C"-mount facilitating installation on all microscope configurations including trinocular, inverted front camera port and stereo microscopes.
  • Supports Windows 98/SE, 2000, ME and XP operating systems.
  • The DK Series Requires NO POWER SUPPLY. The camera takes its power from the USB bus (~2.5 watts). This means with a laptop, images can be generated in the field. If your bus power is tapped out, the camera can run with a separate power supply available as an option or use your own 12VDC@900ma power supply.
  • Generates: 8 & 24-bit AVI, JPEG, BMP, TIFF and RAW files
  • Comes with INFINITY CAPTURE and INFINITY ANALYZE software for Windows
