Applications in Industry and Science
Scientific high-sensitive cameras cameras from greateyes are qualified for imaging and spectroscopy from NIR, VIS, UV-range to EUV- and Xray-range. They combine highly sensitive sensors with ultra low noise electronics for optimal detection of weak signals. The following examples show a selection of applications with greateyes cameras involved.Get in touch with our experts to find the most qualified greateyes camera for your application.

Fluorescence in vivo imaging Fluorescence in vivo imaging works on the basis of fluorochromes that are excited by an external light source, and which emit light of a different wavelength in response. The emitted fluorescence can be detected by using a camera which is sensitive in the spectral range of near-infrared. |
