VenusLab series sCMOS scientific cameras

Overview

Product introduction of VenusLab series sCMOS scientific cameras：

The VenusLab series sCMOS scientific cameras are high-end imaging devices specially designed for cutting-edge scientific research scenarios. They are equipped with a scientific-grade back-illuminated (BSI) CMOS image sensor at their core, integrating deep refrigeration sealing technology and high-speed data transmission technology to achieve a synergistic performance of high sensitivity, high frame rate, high dynamic range, and high signal-to-noise ratio. Their response wavelength range covers 190~1100nm, enabling accurate capture of light signals from ultraviolet to near-infrared. They not only meet the basic research needs in life sciences, quantum physics, astronomical observation, semiconductor testing, etc., but also can be seamlessly integrated into optical detection systems such as structured light microscopes and scanning electron microscopes with their flexible and compact structure, providing reliable solutions for various demanding imaging scenarios.
