CW-ZDM2 CaliWedge for ZDM and other Microscopes Patent Pending One Step Software Calibration by Zarbeco

The CaliWedge (Patent Pending No. 15/062,663) is the new and easy way to use the included Wedge Reader PC software for one-button calibration on your MiScope and MiScope Megapixel 2.

Calibration, magnification, telecentricity, distortion, field curvature, depth of field and more are easily obtained. With the included advanced interferometry techniques in the Wedge Reader PC software you will get an accurate calibration that is compensated for lens distortion.

First place the object you want to measure under your ZDM or other microscope and focus it using the focus block. Then, place your CaliWedge under your lens, and move it until it is in focus on the center of the CaliWedge lines (without moving the focus again). Then click the wedge button in your Wedge Reader software and your ZDM or other microscope is now calibrated. Now use your ZDM software for measurements of the object you previously focused on using your Video Toolbox PRO or Premier PC software and it is calibrated for accurate measurement. If you are using another microscope and don't have Video Toolbox PRO or Premier software, you can enter the calibration into your microscope's measurement software.

Features

• Includes CaliWedge matched for your specific microscope or optical system
• One-button calibration software that integrates with Video Toolbox PRO and Video Toolbox Premier (purchase separately)
• Wedge Reader PC Software opens all common image formats to analyze optic parameters including magnification, distortion, field curvature and telecentricity.

Computer Requirements

• Pentium III 500 MHz or faster (Core 2 Duo processor recommended)
• Windows 2000/XP/VISTA/7/8/10, Internet Explorer 5.0 (or later) installed
• DirectDraw 8.1+
• 256+ MB of Free Memory, Video card with 32+ MB of video RAM, minimum 800 x 600 resolution at 16-bit (65,000 colors)

MI-HDMI-USB2 HDMI-USB2 Dual Output Digital Video Microscope with 5x-145x Magnification by Zarbeco

Video inspection requires a fast responsive camera.

Count on our high resolution HDMI microscope for HD video quality at full HD video speed with no lag.

The 5 - 145x magnification microscope has enough working distance to use tweezers or a soldering iron underneath. Connect the microscope directly to an HD monitor for high resolution, HD video speed and instant response without the need for a computer. Capture images directly to a microSD card (not included) and review them on the monitor. The optional artulated arm lets you quickly adjust the viewing angle and magnification, then lock the microscope in place with the twist of a knob.

When you need to switch from visual inspection to critical measurement and documentation, connect the microscope to a computer through the USB output and use the included Video ToolBox Pro software. Video ToolBox Pro has all the features you need, from image or video capture, to markup, to CAD quality measurements that you can export to EXCEL® for further analysis. The software produces adjustable reticles and grids for visual measuement or add calibrated custom overlays for quick visual evaluation of your parts. Draw directly on the live image to show defects or areas that need more careful inspection. Even record a video of your entire inspection procedure for training purposes.

Whether you need to inspect circuit boards, medical devices, optical components or other small parts, the dual HDMI + USB microscope gives you two scopes in one -- a high speed video inspection microscope and a portable software based analysis microscope.

ZC3-505-o2 USB 3 Digital Video Camera by Zarbeco
