C-mount USB 3.0 CMOS Cameras
SONY PREGIUS CMOS Sensor

The HPTEC3CMOS camera utilizes a SONY PREGIUS CMOS sensor for capturing images, and it connects via USB 3.0 for efficient data transfer. The HPTEC3CMOS hardware resolutions range is 0.5MP to 45MP, housed in a compact CNC aluminum alloy casing with Two-stage TE-cooling. Equipped with a two-stage peltier cooling system, the sensor chip can reach temperatures as low as -42 degrees below the ambient temperature. This feature significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio and reduces image noise. The camera is designed with a smart structure to enhance heat radiation efficiency and prevent moisture-related issues. An controllable electric fan is incorporated to expedite the heat dissipation process.

The HPTEC3CMOS comes bundled with the advanced Micaps MicroView application for video and image processing. It supports multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android, with SDKs for various programming languages such as Native C/C++, C#/VB.NET, Python, Java, DirectShow, Twain, and more. This camera is well-suited for applications in low-light environments, as well as capturing and analyzing microscope fluorescence images. Additionally, it can be utilized for deep-sky astronomy applications.
