Application Scenarios

  • Skin analysis in dermatology clinics using polarized light to reveal surface texture and moisture levels
  • Hair shaft inspection for damage, split ends, or chemical treatment effects in beauty and trichology labs
  • On-site inspection of surface contaminants or fibers in forensic or quality control environments
  • Teaching sessions in biology or cosmetology where students observe live samples through a handheld device
  • Field use by researchers or technicians who need portable magnification without setting up a bench system

Who It Is For

  • Dermatology clinics performing skin health assessments
  • Trichology and hair care laboratories analyzing hair structure and damage
  • Cosmetic product testing labs evaluating skin absorption or hair treatment results
  • Educational institutions teaching biology, dermatology, or material science
  • Field technicians in forensics or quality control needing portable inspection tools

Problems It Solves

  • A fixed magnification handheld device forces users to switch tools for different inspection scales
  • Lack of built-in lighting in basic magnifiers leads to inconsistent image quality under varying ambient light
  • Separate camera and microscope setups increase cost and reduce portability for on-site analysis
  • No digital output means inspection results must be described or manually photographed with a phone
  • Heavy or bulky bench microscopes are impractical for mobile or field-based skin and hair assessments

Technical Features

  • High Speed DSP with MJPEG compression for real-time image processing and video streaming
  • Built-in 8 white LED light source with brightness adjustable from 0 to 30,000 LUX
  • CMOS sensor with 5.0MP resolution for high-detail still capture

Comparison With Other Options

Standard handheld magnifier without digital outputThe HT-80PS captures and stores images digitally, eliminating the need for separate photography and enabling documentation and sharing.
Benchtop polarizing microscopeThe HT-80PS is portable and self-powered via USB, making it suitable for on-site or mobile use where bench space is limited.
Digital microscope with fixed magnificationThe HT-80PS offers a 1X to 500X magnification range, allowing users to inspect both broad surface features and fine structural details without changing instruments.

Use Guide

  • Connect the device to a USB port on a PC or Android phone with OTG support before turning it on
  • Adjust the LED brightness using the software interface if ambient light is too bright or too dim
  • Focus by moving the device closer or farther from the sample within the 0-4cm range
  • Use the snap shot function to capture still images at 5.0MP resolution for reports or records
  • Select video resolution and frame rate based on storage and performance needs; lower settings improve frame rate
  • Ensure the device is clean and dry before use, especially when inspecting skin or hair samples
