Cooled sCMOS Camera

The Cooled sCMOS Cameras are operated with open software and do not require a frame grabber.

They come as a straightforward and affordable upgrade to existing cooled CCD camera systems, delivering high dynamic range, high resolution and high frame rate.

Compliance with Gigabit Ethernet Vision (GEV) standard allows operation with multiple platforms (Windows, Linux). A GEV compliant SDK is available for creation of bespoke software solutions. Camera Link version available.

Different cooling options are available to allow increased exposure times and suitability for a variety of applications.

OEM versions with special form factors / cooling options are available for integration into specific instruments / systems. Demonstration cameras can be loaned on request.
