Why Lumenera Why INFINITY Extensive Product Line Life science researchers, clinical pathologists and industrial technicians address imaging and budgetary requirements with Lumenera’s wide range of USB 2.0 INFINITY cameras. Satisfy your most critical imaging needs with resolutions ranging from 1.4 to 32 megapixel and a wide variety of high quality sensors. Choose from Lumenera’s cost-effective CMOS cameras with extremely fast frame rates or our CCD solutions with high dynamic range and outstanding color reproduction. FLUORESCENT SAMPLE TAKEN WITH INFINITYX-32C Life Science & Clinical Applications Genetics/Biology/Pathology Material Science—Quality Control Metrology/Mineralogy/Metallurgy Defect Analysis Measurement and annotation are an important part of any quality control process. Obtain precise reproducible results through a variety of features found in INFINITY software such as simple calibration as well as extensive measurement options. Stereo and Macro Imaging Samples with reflection, shadowing and low-light conditions commonly found in the QC environment can be quite difficult to image. Effectively deal with washed out or dark areas, bright spots or poorly lit samples with our high dynamic range INFINITY CCD cameras, whose high sensitivity allows for proper imaging. Perform depth of focus and spherical aberration correction with the Advanced Features Module (available as an accessory). PARAMECIUM TAKEN WITH INFINITY1-2CBPAA CELLS TAKEN WITH INFINITY3-1M Fluorescence Producing clear, well-contrasted fluorescent images is a challenge due to the extremely low light signals produced by the sample. Typically, images tend to be noisy and preview frame rates are reduced to a point where noticeable lag occurs. Lumenera’s INFINITY cameras offer a higher dynamic range and optional thermoelectric cooling to address these challenges, resulting in smooth clear images and fast preview speeds. Stained Samples To ensure proper identification and diagnosis of stained samples, precise color is required. Benefit from years of INFINITY software development to produce excellent color in your biological samples. Difficult transition colors such as pinks, purples and browns that are improperly reproduced by many other cameras on the market today are easily achieved by Lumenera’s advanced algorithms.

High resolution, combined with the excellent sensitivity of a CCD, make this an excellent general camera for virtually any application. In addition to high resolution, pixel-shifting cameras have the added advantage of acquiring all three color channels for each pixel, ensuring the highest possible quality of color reproduction. Models: INFINITYX-32C 32 MP CMOS Color Camera INFINITYX-32M 32 MP CMOS Mono Camera Progressive Scan CMOS and CCD Sensors INFINTY cameras include a progressive scan sensor, ideal for imaging moving or changing objects. Progressive scan provides consistent live previews when focussing or imaging moving samples, without the tearing or color blurring normally found in inter- laced cameras. This is due to the sensor array being read in its entirety versus field by field. Additionally, no settle time is required before image capture. Please note: The INFINTY2-3 is not progressive scan. All Lumenera INFINITY cameras include INFINITY ANALYZE software, allowing complete camera control and advanced image acquisition and analysis. Also included is INFINITY CAPTURE, an intuitive user interface that contains all of the basic features needed to control the camera and capture images. Easily integrate your INFINITY camera with 3rd party software ap- plications through our TWAIN and DirectX/WDM interface (included) as well as 3rd party drivers for most image analysis packages. An Advanced Features Model is available as an accessory to perform depth of focus and spherical aberration correction.

Our unique options for OEM custom software features and hardware camera design offer the following advantages: • Improve Time-to-Market • Reduce Development Costs • Differentiate from the Competition Comparing USB 2.0 to FireWire Video performance in digital cameras is defi ned by the maximum frame rate at a given resolution and is measured in frames per second (fps). Both FireWire and high-speed USB 2.0 digital cameras exhibit almost identical frame rates by resolution. These frame rates are usually limited by the sensor read-out rate — not the physical interface. As an example, a 1 megapixel CCD sensor using a FireWire or USB 2.0 interface is limited to 15 or 30 fps depending on the camera model. As resolution increases, frame rates decrease. USB 2.0: 480 Mbit/s, 15 fps, plug-and-play. 99% of computers have USB 2.0 ports. Firewire: 400 Mbit/s, 15 fps. Most computers need a FireWire card installed — some laptops may not have the space required. USB 2.0 is an ideal interface for scientific cameras, offering plug-and-play with all computers, while providing more than enough throughput for it’s selected image sensors.
