Neo camera at 100fps

Andor’s Neo camera has been out for about a year now. I first wrote about using it back in February. The camera immediately showed the major difference in field of view between sCmos sensors and traditional interlines quite well, but the speed, binning, sub-array and bias clamp controls weren’t available. Over the past few firmware/SDK updates, Andor has steadily addressed these limitations. I had a chance to field test the latest combo of firmware and driver SDK. Basically I found a camera that runs at 100fps with roughly four times the field of view of a typical Sony285 type sensor. In my last post I noted that people would wait until end user software platforms could take advantage of the sCmos architecture. I think the wait might be over.

I’ll continue to report on this as I have an opportunity to put it through it’s paces. I’m curious to see how people respond to it’s performance…
