Design and Technology (Functionality)

This equipment stands out for its technical sophistication and robust build:

• Ultra-Durable Housing: Crafted from a Zinc-Aluminum alloy using CNC technology, its compact integrated housing ensures long-term durability and passive thermal protection (natural cooling) with no moving parts.

• Ultra-Fine™ Color Engine: Features advanced color processing technology that ensures natural, vibrant tones in every capture.

• High-Speed Connectivity: Its USB 2.0 interface provides smooth real-time video transmission, facilitating direct on-screen observation.

• Optical Protection: Designed with a high-quality IR-CUT filter to protect the sensor and optimize the spectral range between 380–650nm.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Is it compatible with my operating system? Yes, the camera supports Windows (XP through Windows 11), macOS, Linux, and Android.

• What software does it use for capture? It includes the advanced Image View software for image and video processing, as well as a multi-platform SDK for developers.

• Does it require an external power supply? No, it is powered directly through the computer’s USB port (DC 5V).

Advantages and Disadvantages (Pros and Cons)

Pros:

• High Versatility: Excellent support for multiple programming languages (Python, C++, Java, etc.) via SDK.

• Durability: Heavy-duty design with no moving parts significantly extends its operational lifespan.

• Image Control: Full control over exposure, White Balance (ROI), and saturation.

Cons:

• USB 2.0 Interface: While smooth for standard analysis, it may be slower than USB 3.0 interfaces when working at extremely high resolutions.

Field Use and Recommendations

This equipment is ideal for:

• Clinics and Hospitals: Pathology and hematology sample capture.

• Educational Centers: Real-time projection of samples for classroom environments.

• Industry: Material inspection and quality control.

Pro Tip: For optimal performance, ensure you use a high-speed USB port directly on your PC’s motherboard and keep the sensor dust-free by using dry compressed air.
