What was it all about?
In laboratory automation, ever-faster and more reliable methods are being used to analyze genetic material through gene sequencing. Using NGS (Next Generation Sequencing), even subtle differences in the structure of the genome can be detected and evaluated. Therefore, it is necessary to visualize and determine the sequence of the four different bases on a DNA strand.
What was the problem?
A powerful vision system is required for high-resolution image acquisition at high frequency. Image processing enables the manufacturers of sequencing devices to visualize the small building blocks of life very quickly and with great accuracy. A system with the CoaXPress 2.0 interface (including camera, interface card or frame grabber, and other components), meets the requirements for low installation effort and high quality measurement results.
