BZ-9000 (Biorevo) microscope performs fluorescence, bright field and phase-contrast imaging on a variety of specimen without the need for a darkroom. Is fully motorized; has six-objective lens revolver, motorized stage, electronically controlled filter turret, and built-in sample enclosure. Is able to switch between up to four different fluorescent channels, automatically adjusting the filter and exposure time. Incorporates a single high-res, high-sensitivity 12-bit monochrome camera; can switch to color imaging. Navigation system locates areas of interest when at high-magnification by using a low-magnification image for reference. Incorporates a Z-stack and image stitching function; can stitch up to 1,200 images in XY directions. A quick full focus and Z-stack function captures focused images in seconds. Provides options for quantitative analysis, including standard 2-D measurements, cell counting and brightness analysis. A real-time 3-D module is able to generate a 3-D image of a fluorescent specimen.

VW-9000 high-speed microscope incorporates a built-in light source, LED monitor, analysis software and PC components. Can be used for standard high-speed applications and as a digital microscope for inspection and development work. Has a redesigned CMOS sensor; is capable of recording high-speed processes at up to 230,000 frames per sec.; can capture video for up to 13 hrs. Controller supports color and monochrome cameras. High-speed recording is automatically played back in slow motion. Motion graph function graphically displays changes in a target’s movement. Recorded footage can be edited and analyzed directly on the controller. Automatically tracks moving objects in recorded footage to quantify speed, acceleration, distance, angle and other measurements. Error monitoring function automatically analyzes repetitive movements to determine when an abnormal event occurs.
