New Product Announcement
Montreal, November 11, 2007
  • Norpix Inc. has teamed up with QImaging to deliver a breakthrough new system.
  • New SimulPix™ System for Real-Time Overlays of Multiple Imaging Modes!

Live Imaging from Two Scientific-Grade Cameras on a Single Microscope

Perfect for acquiring images for:

  • Patch Clamping / Electrophysiology
  • IR-DIC with Fluorescence in Living Cells
  • Fluorescence Polarization in Living Cells
  • Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)
  • Dual-Emission Ratiometry

Now, any researcher can acquire two simultaneous channels of images from their microscope and instantly see both channels in a live overlay view. The new SimulPix software from Norpix opens exciting new ways to observe, study, and measure dynamic events and changes that can only be explored by gathering image data from two distinct imaging modes. Because it's from Norpix, all data is reliably streamed to disk where it can be easily accessed for rigorous analysis and presentation.

  • No more switching between microscope modes. All data are acquired in parallel
  • Live preview windows show each channel separately and as a perfectly aligned, user-defined overlay
  • Capture to disk for as long as your experiment requires
  • Choose a QImaging camera that fits your needs and budget
  • Each camera runs at optimal speed: no speed penalty for running two in parallel

Available as a turnkey system or with the following components:

  • StreamPix4 software with the SimulPix module.
  • Two matched QImaging Cameras (ask about adding one camera if you already have one)
  • Supports all QIMAGING monochrome cameras.
  • Dual-Cam™ precision multimode image splitter (optional)

Recommended computer specifications:

  • Intel Dual 2 Core
  • Windows XP
  • 1 Gbyte of RAM
  • 1 os disk
  • 2 video drives, 1 per camera
