Microscope Stage Camera Synchronization
Ultra high-speed imaging and TDI scanning requires tightly synchronized motion and camera triggering. This peripheral ADR microscope stage can be combined with Zaber’s X-MCC Controller optional encoder outputs to enable low latency camera synchronization.
This flexible system can be used with cameras of almost any resolution and scanning speed thanks to 1 nm direct reading linear encoders and user configurable interpolation on the controller’s outputs.
