Product description
The Proxitronic eCAM ideally complements our iCCD product range. Both series have a common interface, so that they can very easily be interchanged. The eCAM emphasizes the high resolution, safe day/night operation and and high red / NIR sensitivity.

Proxitronic proudly presents the dynamic contrast enhancement (DCE) feature now seamlessly integrated in the e200 EMCCD camera. The image processing is hardware-implemented so that the camera is running smoothly without stutter.

The images above show a business card seen from the rear side. For the sake of readability the images have been flipped vertically.
The DCE feature is extremely useful in applications where image enhancement is needed in live imaging, e.g. observation in a misty environment. The correction applied is dynamically based on the respective previous frame. Therefore this processing method yields neither smearing nor stuttering.
The correction can be applied to a series of pre-defined AOIs going from full image to 1/16 image. The image below shows a corrected area of 3/16.
