Introduction
sMAX Series TE-Cooling C-mount USB3.0 / Camera Link sCMOS Camera
The sMAX series sCMOS Camera adopts GSENSE with big pixel size or full-frame CMOS sensor as the image-picking device and USB3.0 /Camera Link is used as the transfer interface to increase the frame rate.
With the two-stage peltier cooling sensor chip to -40°C below ambient temperature. 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.
sMAX series comes with advanced video & image processing application ToupView/ToupLite; Providing Windows/Linux/ OSX multiple platform SDK; Native C/C++, C#/VB.NET, DirectShow, Twain Control API;
The sMAX series can be widely used in low light environment and microscope fluorescence image capture and analysis, as well as the astronomy deep sky application.
