Fast Streaming Video and High-Resolution Still Image
The DP 200 is designed for various demands of digital microscopy for analysis and documentation purposes. It offers exceptional fast streaming video at high-resolution on the computer monitor together with still images of high resolution.
Easy-to-use
The DP 200 is a small and compact digital camera with a standard C-mount interface for universal use and flexible attachment to microscopes.
Installation of the electronic connection is also very simple through connecting a single standard USB 2.0 cable between the camera and the computer. The DP 200 uses the USB 2.0 cable for power, control information and to transmit data.
Fast video
The use of the 480 Mbits/s high-speed architecture of the USB 2.0 international standard has allowed the DP 200 to deliver fast streaming colour video in high resolution on the monitor of the connected computer.
With a frame rate of 60 frames per second the microscopy image appears on the computer screen without delay. The steady, full-screen live image gives higher user comfort and productivity when focusing and interactively optimizing the image.
Direct Digitalization
In relation to colour quality and precise details the DP 200 demonstrates its superiority. The digitalization of the image signal direct at the sensor allows high transfer speed and reliable data communication with no loss of information or reduction in image quality. Using this technology, the live image is not only noise-free but has also significantly more details than an image generated by a video camera.
Comfortable Operation
The powerful software included with the camera provides a wide range of image capture and image processing functions. Easy handling and a user-friendly application play an important role in the design of the product, making sure that both first-time users and experienced, creative users can take full advantage of digital imaging.
A standard TWAIN interface provides support for a wide range of 3rd party solutions for image capture and data integration with image management, editing and analysis solutions.
The DP 200 digital camera is powerful, compact, easy-to-use and is the ideal first camera for professionals in the fields of industry, research, medicine and natural science.
