  • Fluorescence Diffraction Tomography

    Prof. Yi Xue and team at UC Davis develop custom optical microscopy techniques for brain imaging and optogenetic stimulation, tailored to maximize throughput, spatial resolution, imaging depth, and imaging speed.

  • Astronomy with Adaptive Optics

    Dr. Jared Males is an astronomer who works at the Steward Observatory, studying extrasolar planets, “Extrasolar planets are planets orbiting stars other than our sun, I image them using adaptive optics and coronagraphs. We want to take direct pictures of those planets, split the light from the planet, separate it from the star, and measure the properties of the planet's atmosphere, specifically looking for things like: does it have oxygen, does it have water, does it have methane, how hot is the planet.”

  • 3D Light Sheet Organoid Imaging

    Prof. Miao Ping Chien’s laboratory at the Erasmus University Medical Center Rotterdam is exploring the molecular mechanisms behind rare and aggressive cancer cell subpopulations, as well as cancer cell states that contribute to the tumor progression, metastasis and therapy resistance. The multidisciplinary approach uses a combination of microscopy, AI assisted image analysis, bioinformatics as well as single cell and spatial-omics technologies. This aims to translate findings on the cellular level to clinical applications.

  • Imaging Flat Jet Liquid-Liquid Interfaces

    Professor Andreas Osterwalder is a group leader whose research is mainly focused on novel methods of producing cold neutral molecules and leveraging their usage in fundamental chemical and physical research, as well as targeting interfaces between two liquids, and dynamical processes taking place in such environments.

  • Whole Brain Super-Resolution 3D FISH

    Dr. Marcelo Nollmann leads a research group at the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) in Montpellier, where his group aims to develop single-molecule and advanced microscopy methodologies to understand the mechanisms underlying DNA organisation and transcription in multi-cellular organisms.

  • Can I use a camera without connecting to a PC?

    This article discusses how it may be possible to stream images from a camera directly to a video system without using a PC connection.

  • How do I use my camera with Macintosh OS X?

    Our imaging products may be used with a variety of software programs on OS X. This table lists the our cameras compatible with certain software programs used on OS X.

  • Images are out of focus using a C-mount or CS-mount lens

    Many of our camera models come equipped with a CS-mount lens holder. This lens holder is designed to accommodate a CS-mount lens, and when equipped with a C-mount lens spacer, a C-mount lens.

  • Maximum possible image size of color 5.0MP Grasshopper varies with pixel format.

    This article describes why, in some cases, it is not possible to access the maximum reported image size on a color 5MP Grasshopper GRAS-50S5C.

  • FlyCapture SDK Download

    The FlyCapture® Software Development Kit (SDK) provides a common software interface to control and acquire images for FLIR area scan USB 3.1, GigE, FireWire, and USB 2.0 cameras using the same API under 32- or 64-bit Windows or Linux. Note: Blackfly S cameras use our latest SDK: Spinnaker. Spinnaker also supports all USB 3.1 and GigE area scan cameras.

  • Stereo Accuracy and Error Modeling

    The objective of this document is to give a reasonable approximation of stereo errors in 3D and to outline the methods customers can use to determine the tolerances themselves.
