Scientific CMOS Cameras: pco.edge

Source: PCO-TECH Inc.

PCO's scientific CMOS (sCMOS) cameras feature high-resolution, high quantum efficiency, high frame rates, high dynamic range, and availability with various interface options. They are designed to provide low latency, low jitter,and  real-time signals between a camera and frame grabber. 

The CLHS models of the pco.edge series offer benefits such as higher bandwidth, more robust connections, longer distances with fiber connectors, larger flexibility, and cost effective hardware and licensing. These cameras are free of drift, and are capable of reaching emCCD domain. They also feature superior image quality, high resolution, and high speed recording and data streaming.
