Chapter 2: Kuro Camera System
This chapter provides an introduction to, and overview information about, Teledyne
Princeton Instruments’ Kuro camera system.
A typical Kuro camera system includes the following items:
•
Kuro Camera;
•
USB 3.0 data cable;
•
External power supply with international power cord set;
•
I/O to 8 BNC external trigger cable;
•
LightField image acquisition software, including installation disk/hardware key.
•
PCI Express (PCIe) Interface Card and data cable.
NOTE:
The PCIe card should only be installed/used under very
specific circumstances. Refer to
, on page 39 for complete information.
Kuro system components are connected using USB3.0 data cable and are controlled by
the host computer system. All hardware components should be included with the

2.1
Kuro Camera
Teledyne Princeton Instruments’ Kuro™ camera, shown in
, is the world’s first
scientific CMOS (sCMOS) camera system to implement back-illuminated sensor
technology with powerful software. Capable of very low read noise, >95% QE, and
>82 fps at full 1200 x 1200 resolution, Kuro is ideal for many challenging lowlight
applications.
