1.4 Research-Grade Scientific CCD USB 2.0 Camera
Lumenera’s INFINITY3-1UR microscopy camera has been reengineered to offer exceptional dynamic range, read noise and dark current noise. This uncooled camera’s performance and price make it an ideal solution for moderate fluorescence applications.
This product raises the bar for performance in an uncooled ICX285 sensor-based camera. Lumenera has developed a unique noise reduction technology that includes high grade components, low noise electronics and improved thermal management techniques. The combination of these efforts has resulted in the INFINITY3-1UR, the second research-grade camera unveiled by Lumenera with core technologies that are shared across the product line.
Superior Sensitivity and Colour Reproduction:
Equipped with a high quality Sony ICX285 CCD sensor, the INFINITY3-1UR has the unmatched light sensitivity needed for low light applications. Superior performance is achieved through low noise electronics, high grade components and Lumenera’s unique thermal management techniques. With an extremely high dynamic range and large 6.45 µm square pixels, this camera is an excellent choice for light-challenged applications.
Product Highlights:
- Low noise progressive scan 2/3″ 1.4 megapixel CCD image sensor
- High-speed USB 2.0 interface for ease of installation on any computer
- 30 fps at full 1392 x 1040 resolution
- Select 8 & 14-bit pixel data modes
