Microscope CCD and Actuator
54 Megapixel 3CCD with a Built-in Actuator

CCD Development

With the rapid development of CCD technology digital microscopes are now capable of producing images superior to those obtainable from optical microscopes. For example the KEYENCE VHX-1000 digital microscope is capable of capturing an industry leading 54 Mega pixel image. See below where we compare an image captured from a conventional digital microscope with one from the VHX-1000.

54 Megapixel 3CCD - Handheld Camera with Next-Generation Performance

Observation can be performed without placing the target on the stage and without breaking or cutting the target. The newly introduced, ultra-high definition handheld camera realizes a maximum definition of 54 million pixels using the 3CCD multi-scan method with a built-in actuator, and its compact design enables handheld observation.
