WUCAM WiFi +USB Biological Stereo Microscope Camera

The WUCAM WiFi +USB Biological Stereo Microscope Camera is a C-mount CMOS camera with dual connectivity via USB2.0 or WiFi, designed for biological and stereo microscopes.

Product Overview

The WUCAM WiFi +USB Biological Stereo Microscope Camera is a C-mount CMOS camera with dual connectivity via USB2.0 or WiFi, designed for biological and stereo microscopes. It captures 720P video at 30 frames per second with a 1/2.5" sensor, 2.2μm pixels, and a built-in IR-cut filter for accurate color reproduction. The camera operates from a USB port or external charger and supports multiple platforms including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. It is housed in a CNC aluminum alloy body for durability and includes a high-speed USB2.0 cable and optional lens adapters for eyepiece tubes from 23.2mm to 31.75mm.

Key Benefits

  • Dual connectivity via USB2.0 or WiFi allows flexible setup without cabling constraints
  • 720P resolution at 30fps with 2.2μm pixel size delivers clear, detailed images for inspection
  • Built-in IR-cut filter ensures accurate color reproduction under visible light
  • CNC aluminum alloy body provides a rugged, long-life solution for industrial and lab use
  • Supports multiple operating systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS
  • Optional lens adapters fit eyepiece tubes from 23.2mm to 31.75mm, enabling use across different microscope models
  • No moving parts in the design increase reliability and reduce maintenance needs

Application Scenarios

  • Biological sample inspection on a stereo microscope with live video streamed to a tablet or PC
  • Teaching lab where students view a single image on a shared screen instead of passing around an eyepiece
  • Quality control in electronics or medical device manufacturing where images must be captured and stored
  • Remote inspection via WiFi from a mobile device in a field or distributed team environment
  • Documentation of micro-assembly or repair processes with still and video capture

Who It Is For

  • Teaching laboratories in schools and universities requiring shared visual access
  • Clinical and veterinary labs performing biological sample observation
  • Quality inspection teams needing image capture for reports or audits
  • Research labs using stereo microscopes for dissection or material handling
  • Manufacturers doing precision assembly or rework with documentation needs

Problems It Solves

  • A microscope without a camera forces the operator to describe observations instead of showing them
  • Fixed USB-only cameras limit placement and require a nearby computer for operation
  • Lack of WiFi connectivity prevents remote viewing from tablets or mobile devices
  • Poor build quality in low-cost cameras leads to early failure in continuous-use environments
  • Incompatible adapters prevent the camera from mounting on different eyepiece tube sizes

Technical Features

  • C-mount CMOS sensor with 720P resolution and 30fps at 1280x720
  • 2.2μm pixel size with 1/2.5" sensor size (5.63x3.17mm)
  • IR-cut filter for accurate color reproduction in visible light (380-650nm)
  • Dual output: USB2.0 or WiFi via on-camera switch
  • Progressive scan CMOS sensor with auto/manual exposure control
  • Whole area white balance with manual temperature and tint adjustment
  • Ultra-Fine TM color engine for enhanced color fidelity
  • Supports SDKs for Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, and iOS in multiple languages
  • Natural cooling system with no active components, relying on passive heat dissipation
  • Operates from USB power or external USB charger, with no separate power supply needed
