Movie Demos   High-Speed Recording
Capable of high-speed recording of up to 24,000 fps. Easy observation of high-speed moving targets with microscopelike functionality. From checking the behavior of mechanisms on a production line to analyzing moving targets in research tests, the VW-6000 reliably captures high-speed motion in a variety of situations.

Motion Analysis   Moving Target Analysis
The VW-6000 automatically tracks moving objects in recorded footage to quantify speed, distance, angle, and other measurements. This lets you analyze not only how a target is moving, but how far a target is moving.

3D display functions   3D Display Function
A major advantage of digital microscopes over optical microscopes is their ability to easily create 3D images. The 3 dimensional profiles of observation targets are often unclear when using only 2 dimensional images. The ability to create 3 dimensional images from a "stack" of 2 dimensional images in the Z-axis is one of the most important functions of digital microscopes.

Quick Depth Composition.   Quick Depth Composition Function
Another advantage of digital microscopes is their ability to create images with overal focus. Using a digital microscope, such as the KEYENCE VHX-1000, a series of images at varying focus depths can be combined into a single images with overall focus.

3CCD and built-in actuator   3CCD and Actuator Features
  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 achives 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.

Digital Observation Features and Functions   Digital Observation Features and Functions
  A standard feature on most high end digital microscopes is the ability to display independently captured images on a monitor screen split horizontally, vertically or into four parts. This function enables easy comparative inspection between acceptable and unacceptable products or comparative observation of overall and magnified images.

3D Profile Measurement   3D Profile Measurement
  The VHX-1000 creates a 3D image based on automatically captured images, and it calculates height profile data on a desired measuring line. Height, width and height difference data on the measuring line are plotted on a graph. Since the profile graph is related to the cursor position in the image display area, you can see the current measuring point easily.

On-screen Measurement Functions   On-screen Measurement Functions
  Digital microscopes use a vast array of easy to use measurment functions to produce highly accurate image inspections. For examle the Auto Edge Selection Function enables the user to easily select the edges of a target for quick dimensional measurement.

Data Storage and Data Recording   Data Storage and Data Recording
  Many digital microscopes also include either some sort of hard-disk or CD-R/RW drive for use as a storage device. High end product such as the KEYENCE VHX-1000 include both. These devices enable users to easily share image data with their colleagues.

Networking: LAN, FTP server.   Networking Storage and Data Recording
  Using a 100-baseTX LAN port allows the VHX-1000 to connect to the LAN network in your office. In addition, setting the IP address of the VHX-1000 to designate the unit as the FTP server allows users to retrieve data from the machine using FTP software on each PC regardless of the operating system.

Vibration-proof, high-magnification observation system
  Vibration-proof, high-magnification observation system
  The cable is tightly held in place, completely eliminating subtle vibrations in a high-magnification observation.

Multi-viewer System, Stands and Stages   Multi-viewer System, Stands and Stages
  Various digital microscope manufactures also offer mult-viewer system. These system in conjunction with the microscope enable the capture of targets from any angle and easily allow non-contact inspection. For the example five axis stand offered with the KEYENCE VHX-1000 below enables the construction of 3D images and quick depth composition images.

Multi-viewer System, Stands and Stages   Wide Angle Lens, High Resolution Lens and Fiberscopes
  Some of the most important parts sof any digital microscope system are the lens and fiberscopes that are used with the microscope. KEYENCE offers some of the best lens and when used with the KEYENCE VHX-1000 produce some of the best images obtainable with digital microscopes.
