The digital microscope features electric zoom, autofocus, 4K HDMI/USB output, modular design, and an 8MP sensor, suitable for inspection and research applications.
JB Instruments has launched the electric-controlled continuous zoom and autofocus digital microscope JBM-UM08i. The microscope integrates HDMI/USB connectivity, electric zoom, autofocus objective, and LED illumination. It delivers unparalleled clarity and speed with an 8MP sensor at 60fps. Featuring a 5-group, 16-element optical system with a zoom ratio of 18X, it supports both auto and manual focus.
Widely applicable across industrial inspection, medical observation, scientific research, and automation systems, the microscope supports HDMI/USB control and video output at 4K/60fps. The zoom range spans from 1X to 18X, with electric zoom and autofocusing features enhancing its versatility.
The microscope offers a standard working distance of 250mm with a depth of field ranging from 205–255mm. At this distance, the field of view spans 255mm x 145mm at 1X and 14.2mm x 8mm at 18X. The system utilises a Sony 8MP 4K Starvis CMOS sensor for high signal-to-noise performance and supports multiple video outputs, including 4K HDMI and USB, with auto-switching based on monitor resolution.
Image and video storage is facilitated through an SD card or USB flash drive. The built-in JBMS View software includes tools for camera control, autofocus, measurement, and synthesis, accessible through an embedded mouse control interface. The LED ring light with optical zoom is operated via mouse control, supporting autofocus and manual focus modes.
The microscope is modular and compatible with various brackets or arms, offering continuous zoom with interchangeable lenses. It is powered by a high-performance Sony CMOS sensor with an embedded ARM core, enabling direct HDMI monitor connectivity. Images and videos captured using the mouse can be stored on an SD card for analysis and research.
