Air-cooled 12 MP global shutter color camera with 10 GigE output for high-throughput instrument imaging.

The Libra 3412C is a compact, air-cooled color camera built on a 12 MP global shutter CMOS sensor (GMAX 3412) with a 17.4 mm (1.1-inch) diagonal, designed for integration into imaging instruments. Its 10 GigE interface delivers full-resolution 4096 × 3072 images at up to 96 fps (8 bit), and on-camera AI color correction handles white balance automatically. A spectral response of 350–1100 nm covers bright-field color work and many fluorescence applications.

Key Features

  • Global shutter exposes all pixels at once for distortion-free images of moving samples and high-throughput slide scanning
  • 10 GigE interface: 96 fps at 8 bit, 65 fps at 10 bit and 62 fps at 12 bit at full 4096 × 3072 resolution
  • On-camera AI color correction detects lighting and color temperature, removing manual white balance; no host upgrade required
  • 350–1100 nm spectral response with near-infrared sensitivity, for bright-field color and most fluorescence imaging
  • 3.4 µm pixels on a 1.1-inch sensor, suited to optical systems below 40× for large-field cell and tissue imaging
  • Air cooling to 10 °C at 25 °C ambient, dark current 0.5 e⁻/pixel/s; readout noise down to 1.6 e⁻ in Sensitive mode
  • Compact 60 × 60 × 100 mm housing (~489 g) for instrument integration; C / C++ / C# / Python SDK

Typical Applications

  • Pathology slide scanning
  • Multi-channel fluorescence imaging
  • Bright-field color microscopy
  • Industrial inspection
  • OEM instrument integration
