• Life science research
  We offer products for medical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and life science research. These include scientific cameras for microscopy, as well as easy-to-use instruments for drug discovery, tissue oxygenation monitoring, virtual microscopy for pathology research, and other applications. We also offer various detector modules, image sensors, and light sources for integration into equipment.
   
• Low-light detection and imaging
  We offer high-sensitivity detector modules, consisting of a detector and external circuitry, to ease implementation of the device. For low-light imaging, we offer a wide variety of scientific cameras.
   
• Particle and radiation detection
  For detecting particles in high energy physics experiments, we offer a variety of detectors such as photomultiplier tubes (PMT), avalanche photodiodes (APD), and multi-pixel photon counters (MPPC). For X-ray diffraction and imaging, we offer X-ray sources and flat panel sensors.
   
• Ultrafast detection and imaging
  We offer image intensifier (II) products and streak camera systems for detecting high-speed phenomena occurring in extremely short time spans. Example applications include fluorescence lifetime measurement, visualizing discharge and plasma behavior, observing high-speed moving objects and materials such as gases and liquids, and imaging of low-level bioluminescence and chemiluminescence.
