The OlymPix Camera line includes nine cameras differing in resolution, imaging speed, and other performance aspects. OlymPix cameras have an array of low-light-level imaging detectors, which, according to the company, allow for high-resolution detection of fluorescent and luminescent probes for optical reporters of most light-emitting probes currently available. Models range from 12-bit to 16-bit image capture with control over integration time, binning, and subarray readout using the Windows 95-based OlymPix software control package. Each system consists of a camera, a controller, a PCI-bus camera control board, and OlymPix control software for time-lapse studies and image export to Photoshop and other software packages.
