PAXcam incorporates a choice of digital cameras and simple acquisition software, the camera should be chosen to match the application. PAX-it! software can be added to allow additional features as outlined in the PAX-it! software.
The camera range offers solutions for routine colour imaging to cooled cameras that reduce noise caused by low-light applications. Frames per second can achieve 170 with the PAXcam2u3 while also displaying at 2.2 megapixel. If the resolution is important the PAXcam ARC+ might be the best choice with 32 megapixels.
The bundles all include the same software while the camera is supplied to suit the application. If the end-user is confident in making this choice the list of cameras is detailed below. The team at Mason Technology are always available to assist you in the choice of camera. Please use the Contact tab and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
