Stained Samples
To ensure proper identication and diagnosis of stained samples, precise color is required. Advanced Color Correction Matrices (CCMs) compensate for the visual imperfections caused by light sources and image sensors. To provide true-to-life color in a consistent and repeatable manner, Lumenera has designed proprietary CCMs. As a result, Lumenera is better able to dene and contrast colors that are difcult to reproduce including hues of oranges, reds, pinks and yellows. These advanced techniques retune the image to be true to life.
Live Imaging
Combine INFINITY software with our high-speed USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 cameras for smooth, responsive live video preview, or to record brief video clips. Integration with popular 3rd party software is available.
