Dage-MTI is an international leader in the design and manufacture of high performance digital & analog video cameras and
monitors.
Dage-MTI is currently the oldest camera manufacturer in the United States, founded back in 1952.

Infrared CCD Monochrome Video Camera
1/2″ IR camera ideal for applications requiring real-time imaging with enhanced sensitivity in the near IR and visible regions.
Remote control for contrast enhancement
The newly designed IR-1000 real-time camera (30 frames/sec.) offers enhanced sensitivity across the entire visible and near IR
spectrum, with a 5X increase in sensitivity at 900nm. The extended IR response allows deeper penetration into tissue
sections (e.g. brain slices), while the high sensitivity enables the user to detect images even in lower light conditions.
To provide optimum contrast, the IR-1000 camera now includes electronics that automatically and instantaneously readjust when a
scene changes. This innovative design is especially useful when changing magnification levels, specimens, and/or lighting
levels. The camera’s new real-time edge enhancement feature sharpens the edges and delivers a clearer picture by
resolving fine details in the image.
With a convenient C-mount, the IR-1000 is widely used in a “live” mode connected directly to a monitor. An
optional computer interface board is also available. Dage-MTI’s new real-time camera is ideal for applications such
as electrophysiology, infrared differential interference contrast (IR-DIC), failure analysis, forensics and semiconductor
inspection.

4K Ultra HD Microscopy Camera
Dage-MTI’s 4K-UHD is the ultimate live display microscopy camera for brightfield imaging. The 4K-UHD offers full, ultra high
definition, 3840×2160 output (up to 60fps) with 1600 TV lines of resolution! Small features at low magnification that could not
be resolved satisfactorily using other HD cameras may now be resolved with the Dage 4K-UHD
Like the family of HD cameras Dage offers, the 4K-UHD is preprogrammed for perfect color by critical adjustments of 6 hues – not
just red, green and blue, but yellow, cyan and magenta as well. The 4K-UHD utilizes 3 CMOS chips with pixel offset technology to
increase spatial resolution without sacrificing real time, up to 60fps for live streaming. This fast frame rate enables the
operator to move samples without smear lag or jitter. Real-time, 60fps video streaming also allows effortless focus and specimen
placement for more efficient slide reviews.

Accessories- HypIRia™ Objective lenses
The HypIRia™ are the only telecentric objective lenses optimized for 1 to 2.9 µm. Designed for machine vision and industrial
applications, their heavy duty stainless steel and aluminum housing makes them quite resistant to harsh environment. They are
well-suited for high-end scientific applications, mostly with spectroscopy or multiband due to their wide field and
telecentrism. They succeed at providing a wide aperture over such a long spectral range while still limiting distortion and
chromatism. This wide aperture allows an amazing throughput which offers high quality imaging even for low-light imaging. All
surfaces have an anti-reflective broadband coating effective over the whole spectral range. The manual fine focus allows for a
very precise adjustments of the image. They come in three different focal lengths (11 mm, 15 mm and 25 mm) and their input
ports (SM1 and M45) can easily be coupled with standard filters and protective windows. The H11 has a particularily wide field
of view, making it stand out even more.

Princeton Infrared Technologies, Inc. is headquartered in New Jersey, USA.
They are a fabless infrared company focused on design, test, and final assembly of infrared imaging and detection
products specializing in InGaAs detector arrays. These detector materials are used to detect light beyond what our eyes
see in the Near Infrared as well as Short Wave Infrared (900 nm-1700 nm) versus visible light (400-750 nm). Detectors and
cameras are similar to cell phone cameras except they see infrared light that our human eyes do not see. There are numerous
applications for imaging and detecting light beyond what humans can image with our eyes including applications that need to
detect moisture, temperature, or specific laser wavelengths, i.e. laser designators for dropping bombs and eye-safe
lasers used in range finders.

The LineCAM12 is an advanced linescan SWIR camera with 14-bit digital data at 37klines/s on USB3 or Camera Link™
outputs. The SWIR camera currently comes in two varieties: 250 μm tall pixels for spectroscopy and 12.5 μm square pixels for machine
vision applications. The camera has incredible versatility enabling full wells from 75ke- to 100Me- with 128 steps of variation as
well as integration times from 10 µs to 150s. On chip optical pixel binning (where every other detector is disconnected from the ROIC
thus signal is captured by neighboring pixels) is available by command to trade spectral resolution for increased signal level. Pixel
skipping or binning is also available allowing for 48k lines/s at 512 resolution in the same camera platform, activated by a simple
command structure. The TEC stabilized camera has 31 non-uniformity correction (NUC) tables with 15 factory set and 16 user defined
tables to enable flexibility for the given environment.

Spot Imaging – Microscopy Cameras
SPOT Imaging manufactures a complete line of scientific digital cameras for microscopy, from easy to use color
CMOS cameras for brightfield microscopy to ultra-sensitive scientific CMOS sensors for low light fluorescence applications.
Every SPOT camera comes with the SPOT Software™, an easy to use image capture application full of tools for microscopists,
including scale bar, annotations, measurements, custom reporting, and time-lapse recordings. Cameras run on both Windows® and
Macintosh® computers, and a Software Development Kit is available for integration with custom software. All SPOT cameras ship
with a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty and our exceptional track record for building reliable cameras that last for years.
The SPOT RT sCMOS uses Sony’s breakthrough Pregius™ CMOS sensor. Now you can experience unprecedented speed and
sensitivity in a scientific CMOS camera. Deep cooling allows dim images to be seen without becoming obscured by dark current

Ximea, headquartered in Münster Germany, was created by the group of industry leading Imaging and Vision veterans
originating from SOFTHARD companies.
XIMEA has defined its mission as the development of cameras at the forefront of machine vision and imaging, spearheading the
advancements of research. This resulted in remarkable product lines like xiQ – USB3 Vision cameras, xiC – USB 3.1 with Sony CMOS,
xiMU – Subminiature camera and xiRAY – X-ray cameras. Breakthroughs followed with first PCI Express camera, smallest
Hyperspectral cameras in the world, Embedded vision platform or original Thunderbolt™ cameras. Utilizing the exceptional 64 Gbit/s
speed of PCIe interface new models emerge, suitable for Multi-camera setups or with enhanced
sensitivity using sCMOS sensors.
