Use guide

  • Select camera model based on required resolution, sensor size, and application environment
  • Choose color or monochrome sensor depending on whether color fidelity or sensitivity is critical
  • Use binning (1×1, 2×2, etc.) to increase frame rate or reduce noise in low-light conditions
  • Set exposure time to match lighting and motion in the scene (0.06ms to 15s range)
  • Use ROI to focus on a specific area and improve frame rate during live capture

FAQ

What is the interface type?
C-mount with USB3.0 high-speed data transfer.
Can I use this with a stereo biological microscope?
Yes. The C-mount interface allows direct attachment to stereo biological microscopes with standard C-mount adapters.
What is the maximum frame rate?
Up to 5.6 fps at 4912×3684 resolution (U3CMOS18000KPA); higher rates available at lower resolutions with binning.
Is SDK support available?
Yes. SDKs are available for Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android in multiple languages including C/C++, Python, Java, and C#.
What is the exposure range?
From 0.06ms to 15 seconds (U3CMOS16000KPB), or up to 2000ms for other models.
