Digital microscopes demand precision imaging to reveal biological and material structures in fine detail. FRAMOS delivers customized vision solutions that integrate seamlessly into microscopy systems - offering high resolution, low noise, and accurate optical alignment for every application.

Digital Microscopy Depends on Imaging Precision

The Role of Cameras in Microscope Systems

High-performance digital microscopes require image sensors that complement optics, magnification, and intended use – from histology slides to semiconductor surfaces. Whether you’re designing for diagnostics, teaching labs, or industrial inspection, consistency and optical precision are paramount. FRAMOS helps developers engineer microscope systems with best-in-class sensors, hardware platforms, and system-level optimization.

Vehicle imaging system deployed in urban infrastructure

  • High-Resolution Sample Imaging

    • Capture microstructures and cellular detail with sensors exceeding 20 megapixels
    • Large-format sensors support broader fields of view under lower magnification
    • Suited for fluorescence, brightfield, and phase contrast techniques

  • Color and Monochrome Options

    • Accurate color reproduction for stained tissue and pathology workflows
    • Monochrome options for quantitative imaging and high-contrast grayscale
    • Pixel-level calibration support for flat-field correction and shading consistency

  • Low Noise and High Sensitivity

    • Low dark current and minimal read noise ensure clean images in low-light scenarios
    • Ideal for live-cell imaging, fluorescence capture, and time-lapse applications
    • Enables short exposure times without sacrificing signal clarity
