A scientific imaging system for the Mac, the Image Explorer ($6000) captures and analyzes gray-scale image data in both bright light and low light. Intended for applications such as microscopy, fluorescence in situ hybridization, chemiluminescence, and gel documentation, the Image Explorer achieves the range of light sensitivity by integrating image data on-chip at video rates. The package's frame grabber can grab a video sequence of up to 32 frames in real time; optional memory modules allow up to 4 seconds of real-time image-sequence capture. The product is from Signal Analytics (Vienna, VA).
