Wireless Digital Imaging
Engaging, Collaborative Education
Flexible Classroom for the Digital Age
Adding wireless (WLAN) capabilities to a science classroom enables students to work together in an interactive way. The exibility offered by wireless connectivity improves efciency, helping educators save time and reduce costs.
Every microscope equipped with a WLAN-enabled EP50 camera becomes a wireless imaging system. Connect through the camera’s
WLAN signal* and stream 5-megapixel images and Full HD videos to mobile devices or WLAN-enabled PCs and laptops.
Installing the camera is easy. Its stand-alone functionality is enabled by onboard imaging software, making additional PC equipment unnecessary.
* A USB WLAN adaptor is required to operate the camera in wireless mode. This WLAN adaptor is not included with the standard EP50 package. Please contact your local sales representative.

Improved Learning Process
Onboard imaging software with full stand-alone capabilities enables users to display live images directly on a Full HD monitor and store data on an SD card without additional hardware.
The camera can be controlled with OSD (On-Screen Display) software using a monitor and mouse, or with the EPview app for mobile devices and EPview software for PCs and laptops with Windows operation systems. All three options provide controls for image acquisition and display, basic measurements, annotation, and sharing functionality.
Inspiring Enthusiasm
With its USB WLAN adaptor, the EP50 camera can create its own wireless network, but it can also be integrated into LAN networks using its USB-to-Ethernet adaptor. Entire classrooms can easily connect to the camera using the free EPview app for mobile devices and software for Windows operating systems. The simple and intuitive user interface enables students and teachers to easily capture, process, and store sample images.
Engaging Lectures
The camera easily connects to a monitor or projector so that teachers can support their lectures with live images or videos. The EP50 camera transforms the microscopy classroom from an individual experience into an engaging group activity.
Interactive Learning
Teachers and students can directly access
live microscope images, making the
classroom a truly interactive space. Images
can be shared with the entire class, enabling
open discussion between students and
educators based on live examples.
Simultaneous direct output of WLAN
and HDMI is available.
Improved Learning Process
Display live images directly on a Full HD
monitor using the HDMI output with no
additional hardware required. The onboard
interface enables users to control the
camera through its simple on-screen icons—
only a monitor and mouse are required. Image
and movie les can be stored on an SD card
for sharing and further investigation.
