Camera upgrades lab microscopes for quick imaging


A new USB 3.0 camera lets any laboratory microscope be upgraded for faster imaging and video recording. The Mighty Cam 3.0 captures up to 45 frames per second, more than twice the rate of earlier-generation USB devices. Advanced speed makes it suitable for applications that benefit from reduced image lag times, such as biomedical research, scientific documentation and analysis, health care and medical education or lab photography.

The five-megapixel CMOS camera attaches easily to any scope with a C/CS adapter ring and plugs into a computer or monitor with the USB 3.0 cable. The camera also displays images rapidly, with a file transfer rate of up to 5 gigabytes per second – ten times faster than USB 2.0. The unit includes ezMeasure software that lets Windows 7 or 8 users measure, annotate, record and interpret data. The program helps create reports with images, analysis and raw data. Operators can measure distances in millimeters or inches, save multiple settings and connect two cameras at a work station for live, side-by-side comparisons. Aven, Inc.
