New high precision system for well plate filming

Tue, Dec 10 2024

Enter the CentriTower system, a cutting-edge optical telecentric lens system designed to deliver high-resolution video images with zero parallax error and zero lens distortion. This innovative and compact system is perfectly suited for filming in PCR plates, deep well plates, petri dishes, and similar-sized vessels.

 

 

Researchers can now analyze the behavior of tiny, fast-moving organisms such as fish larvae, Daphnia, copepods, and Drosophila with exceptional clarity and precision. The system includes a 5 MP USB 3 camera with a C-mount, capable of capturing videos at up to 75 frames per second (FPS), ensuring that no detail is missed.

 

 

One of the standout features of the CentriTower system is its ability to block ambient lighting, thanks to its durable yet transportable tower design. This ensures consistent and reliable results by eliminating reflections and enhancing contrast. Additionally, the system includes an infra-red light panel for back illumination, which further improves video tracking performance without affecting the behavior of the test organisms.

The CentriTower system seamlessly integrates with our automated video tracking and behavior analysis software, LoliTrack v5 – a powerful combination of hardware and software allowing researchers to track and analyze behavior in small animals with ease.

 

 

As the scientific community continues to push the boundaries of knowledge, the CentriTower system stands out as a vital tool for researchers seeking to gain deeper insights into the intricate behaviors of the natural world. With its top-quality optical components and user-friendly design, the CentriTower system is set to become an indispensable asset in laboratories around the globe.

The CentriTower can be bought as a separate product or as a system that includes LoliTrack v5 and an IR light panel.
