Various Applications of Microscopic Digital Camera
Various image sensors are needed to deal with modern microscopic observation problems. Olympus can provide a series of precision digital color camera product lines covering all kinds of material science applications. The product line of sensors covers from cameras for archiving and recording to refrigerated, high-performance and high-sensitivity cameras suitable for advanced applications. All cameras are optimized to perform excellent digital imaging performance with Olympus Microscope and image analysis software system.
Imaging under low intensity illumination (e.g. fluorescence) requires very sensitive sensors. Monochrome sensors are used for such applications.
Best choice. For infrared image acquisition, monochrome sensors with special filters are very suitable for near infrared imaging through silicon thin films.
Olympus black-and-white cameras can provide suitable solutions for applications with difficult shooting conditions such as fluorescence observation and near-infrared imaging. XM10-IR is a high sensitivity monochrome camera with a refrigerated 1.4 million pixel CCD. The camera has spectral sensitivity from visible light to 1050 nm and is an ideal choice for near infrared imaging through silicon thin films. This kind of camera uses 14-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), which can be used when the gray value is very important.
