Both camera systems are designed for single photon imaging, but they differ fundamentally in their principle of image acquistion.
HRPCS is a classic iCMOS camera with a double-MCP image intensifier. This camera is well-suited for applications such as bio- / chemoluminescence or weak fluorescence. The integration time per image can be extended virtually indefinitely and is limited only by the memory.
IPD acquires for each single event the corresponding position and time stamp. The the data are recorded as a (x,y,t) set and thus the image can be resolved in time. This system offers true 100% duty cycle.
This camera delivers 160 im/s at full resolution of 2,3 MPix (1920 x 1200). The image intensifier allows shutter times down to 50 ns (standard) or even 3 ns (high-speed option) at repetition rates of up to 300 kHz.
This system is based on a 4,2 MPix sCMOS camera. In its standard configuration it is equipped with a 75 mm Ø Gadox screen and a 75 mm Ø gateable (100 ns) single-MCP image intensifier. The system reaches an overall resolution of 10 LP/mm.
Velocitas VMI is a system including vacuum chamber and pumps, ion optics and camera.
