Introduction
1.1 The Lumenera Scientific Infinity Camera Family
Lumenera Scientific Infinity Cameras are designed to be flexible microscopy
imaging tools for Clinical, Research, Life Science, Materials Science and
Educational Professionals. Infinity cameras are compatible with any USB 2.0
equipped desktop, laptop or embedded computer.
Infinity cameras are designed with flexibility in mind. Each camera model has its
own distinct advantage over the others. Whether your application demands
speed, resolution or sensitivity, there is an affordable Infinity Camera to meet the
requirements. Because they are USB based, there is no need for a frame
grabber. Instead, a single cable provides power*, full command and control and
data transfer at speeds of up to 24 MB/s resulting in real-time video preview.
All cameras have a provision to be externally powered for cases where the USB
cable does not supply power (e.g. some USB cards on laptop computers.)
* The Infinity 2, 4, 5 and X models should be used with an external power adapter (supplied) due
to their higher current requirements.
