AUC5-263-LCD Digital Biological Microscope
High-level colour-corrected infinity microscopy with five plan objectives, Köhler illumination and integrated 13.3-inch 4K digital imaging.
Advanced optical performance with integrated 4K imaging
The AUC5-263-LCD is designed for college education, medical work and laboratory study. Its colour-corrected infinity optical system, WF10×/22mm eyepieces and five infinite plan achromatic objectives deliver high-resolution, high-contrast images across a broad field of view.
Its all-in-one digital system incorporates a 13.3-inch Full HD display and Sony IMX678 camera. Capture 8MP still images, record 4K video and perform measurements using mouse control. HDMI 2.0, USB 2.0 and Wi-Fi outputs support teaching, documentation and collaborative viewing. Dedicated applications support wireless viewing on compatible Apple iPhone, iPad and Android devices, while Windows, macOS and Linux computer platforms are also supported.
Key features
Expandable observation system
Optional accessories support phase contrast, dry or oil darkfield, simple polarisation and LED or mercury fluorescence. A 100× water-immersion objective, semi-APO fluorescence objectives, additional C-mount adapters and DSLR camera adapters are also available.
Apple, Android and computer compatibility
The AUC5-263-LCD can be used as a completely self-contained microscope through its integrated 13.3-inch display, so a separate phone, tablet or computer is not required.
Connection note: Smartphone and tablet connectivity uses Wi-Fi. A compatible 5GHz USB Wi-Fi adapter may be required depending on the supplied configuration. Direct USB connection to an iPhone or iPad is not specified.
