What kind of image sensor or digital camera does the DMetrix DX-40 scanner use?
We have developed our very own image sensor, the DM5760. It is optimally matched to the format of the array microscope. The DMetrix image sensor has ten output channels for high-speed imaging. It has the smallest pixels of any digital camera. Our image sensor is also uniquely designed with noise-suppression features that minimize read-out noise. The image sensor and our own custom electronics result in a digital camera that records high signal-to-noise-ratio images suitable for visual examination or quantitative machine-vision analysis of slide images.
