BUC6B-1200C TE-Cooling C-Mount USB3.0 CCD Microscope Camera (Sony ICX834AQG Sensor, 12.0MP)
Introduction
The cooling temperature can be controlled by software to ensure that the photoelectric conversion quantum efficiency is as high as possible. This will greatly increase the signal to noise ratio and decrease the image noise. Smart structure is designed to assure the heat radiation efficiency and avoid the moisture problem. Electric fan is used to increase the heat radiation speed.
USB3.0 is used as the data transfer interface to increase the frame rate.
BUC6B series cameras come with advanced video & image processing application ImageView; Providing Windows/Linux/OSX multiple platform SDK; Native C/C++, C#/VB.NET, DirectShow, Twain Control API.
The BUC6B can be widely used in low light environment and microscope fluorescence image capture and analysis, as well as the astronomy deep sky application.
