High Quality Images Start with High
Quality Lenses

Inspection
Power
|
|
|
|
Human beings have always had an
instinctive desire to see things in the microscopic world with their own
eyes. People who perform inspection rely on one type of perception,
vision, to extract as much detailed information as possible from what
they see. For a long time there have been two basic opinions about the
nature of perception. One opinion was that of James J. Gibson. He
believed that perception was a simple matter of passively receiving
external information. The second point of view was that externally
received information is transformed into new information through an active,
creative process. At the time that this opinion was becoming more
accepted, research conducted by David Hubel and Torsten Wiesel led to the
understanding that neurons in the brain's "neuron power",
making truly active inspection possible. This, combined with the
necessary three elements for a superior video microscope system---optical
design, mechanical design, and lighting design---give the Hirox system
truly the highest inspection Power.

High Vividness, High Resolution Optical Design
Technology
|
|
 Magnified inspection basically starts with
a lens. The superior optical characteristics of Hirox's lenses were
developed from a new design idea quite unlike previously existing
microscopes. First, special-use military optics were designed. However,
with the development of the CCD camera, new lenses had to be designed
especially to match the unique characteristics of the CCD. Hirox has
always relied on its long-time knowledge and experience in optical technology,
and as CCD technology continues to advance, Hirox also continues to
provide new lenses with ever more vivid color and high resolution.

High Precision and Dynamic Mechanical Design
Technology
|
|
 In
order to create a high performance optical system, high quality
mechanical design and manufacturing technology are required. Hirox's
high-level mechanical design, with it succession of dynamic design
concepts, have resulted in a wide variety of options and adapters,
including the 3D Rotary Head adapter. Hirox will continue to meet the
expanding needs of Hi-Scope users, providing new lenses and adapters for
an ever wider range of inspection applications.

Perfect Lighting Technology Makes Good Lenses
Even Better
|
 At Hirox,
we are not only developing lenses, but are also spending an equal amount
of effort on our optical lighting system. Image capture and lighting must
be considered at the same time. Lighting is not simply the application of
light. Good lighting design is only realized through varying the lighting
to match the sample _ long focus lighting, diffuse lighting, co-axial
bright- field lighting and continuous variable angle lighting are a few
examples. Furthermore, going beyond the concept of one lens and one lighting
method, various lighting methods are made possible with a variety of
lighting adapters. We provide the appropriate lighting for any sample
that the inspector needs to see.
