POINT GREY MEDICAL AND LIFE SCIENCES CAMERAS
To ensure correct diagnosis and good decision making, doctors and engineers require very high performance benchmarks on medical imaging applications and devices. The process of bringing such devices to market is both time consuming and costly. Thus it is important that device components, such as cameras, remain available for many years to come. Point Grey’s combination of strict manufacturing processes and roadmap planning ensure high quality, utmost reliability, and long product lifecycles.
The field of life sciences if often faced with identifying and solving new problems. Researchers become pioneers as they work towards better understanding the world around us. Point Grey cameras are especially useful in this challenge by providing the flexibility and adaptability needed to address new possibilities. Compared to high end scientific cameras, Point Grey cameras allow researchers to develop their solutions at a much lower cost.

The high performance Grasshopper3 camera combines highly sensitive CCD technology with the fast and easy-to-use USB 3.0 interface at a highly competitive price point. This enables a wide range of USB 3.0-enabled desktop, laptop, and embedded computers where other digital interfaces, such as Camera Link, are not an option. Its FPGA and frame buffer-based architecture provides optimal reliability, a rich set of features, and a full image processing pipeline including color interpolation, gamma, and lookup table functionality.
The Grasshopper3 is ideal for bioscience applications such as flow-scanning cytometry, and fluorescence imaging.

The Bumblebee XB3 is a 3-sensor multi-baseline IEEE-1394b (800Mb/s) stereo camera designed for improved flexibility and accuracy. It features 1.3 mega-pixel sensors and has two baselines available for stereo processing. The extended baseline and high resolution provide more precision at longer ranges, while the narrow baseline improves close range matching and minimum-range limitations.
