Applications

Industry

Workers can inspect for leaks, cracks and corrosion of manufacturing products.

Education

In a classroom , each student would simultaneously see what the teacher is showing with the AirMicro. When the teacher presses the capture button on the AirMicro, that image is captured in the photo album of each students iPad at the same time.

Forensics

Investigators can snap images on an iPhone and email them to a colleague at the lab or to a collaborative agency.

Beauty

Evaluation of skin surface conditions and can check what kind of treatment is suitable for various skin types.

Telemedicne

Doctors can show patients live images and add these images into practice management apps and software.

Field Science

Field scientist can use an Apple mobile device with the AirMicro to examine specimens on site without destroying a sample to transport to a lab.




DG-3X Portable Digital Microscope

DG-3X is a powerful Portable Digital Microscope.

DG-3X represents the gold standard in hand-held video microscopy, featuring portability, preview screen, and easy link to a PC. By simply touch and View the DG-3X displays sharp microscope images with a 3.5” full colour TFT LCD.

  • 3.5” built-in full colour display
  • Up to 1000x magnification
  • Fast & easy to use
  • For use on the production line, R&D or lab
  • Modular system with a range of attachments
    •

Features

DG-3X is an extremely portable digital microscope, which is the ideal choice for QA and R&D applications. DG-3X is powerful, robust and easy to use and its high resolution 2.3 MP CCD captures sharp detailed images under any conditions.

Easy to use screen
DG-3X screen

The clear 3.5" colour screen provides scale and magnification information directly to the user.

By using the 7 additional scales (with Grid Editor software), you can confirm quality acceptance/rejection criteria and size of a part, quickly and easily.
Light and easy to carry
DG-3X light

With its compact design, the DG-3X only weighs and incredible 490g.

The DG-3X uses a long-lifetime rechargable lithium-ion battery or an AC adaptor for its power source.

With the DG-3X, you can shoot a sharp, magnified picture everywhere you want.
Touch and View
DG-3X Touch & View

With the DG-3X Touch and View feature, just touch the lens to the object and you can take a picture immediately.

You can observe a part or sample anywhere, without the need to remove it and mount it.

With the DG-3X you can take your microscope to the sample, anywhere, anytime.
Versatile outputs
DG-3X outputs

Images can be stored as jpegs on the removeable CF card. You can then easily transfer your images to your PC for analysis and printing.

Connect your DG-3X to an external TV monitor and show your colleagues live high magnification images.

Alternatively by connecting your DG-3X to a DVD recorder you can record high magnification movies.
Easy to focus
DG-3X focus

Focussing on the DG-3X is extremely easy and user-friendly. You can confirm focus by zooming the image on the monitor temporarily before you push the shutter.

A focus indicator shows the adjustment condition of the focus ensuring anyone can shoot a vivid image easily.
