Rolera Bolt USER MANUAL
CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Introducing the Rolera Bolt CMOS camera from QImaging. As a cost-effective solution, the Rolera Bolt is
designed to meet the imaging requirements for a diverse set of applications ranging from IR-DIC to whole
organism motility studies including fluorescence documentation of C. elegans and Drosophila larvae. Capable
of streaming at 30 full frames per second with 1.3 mega-pixel resolution and 3e-read noise, the Rolera Bolt is
perfect for tracking dynamic events with detailed spatial and temporal resolution. The USB 2.0 digital interface
allows easy installation with a single cable for both power and data communication and eliminates the need
for a framegrabber or external power supply. The Rolera Bolt includes QCapture Software for Windows which
offers real time image preview and capture. A Software Development Kit (SDK) is available for interfacing with
custom software.
