This camera is built for demonstrations and for places where remote viewing is needed. A teacher can stream the microscope image to students' phones or tablets, or a lab can show a sample to colleagues in another room, without running cables. Because the Wi-Fi link is secured with a key, only devices given the key can join the stream.
With a maximum of 12 frames per second, it is better suited to stained slides, tissue sections, insects and plant material rather than fast-swimming organisms, which makes it a good fit for digital microscopy in school biology lab equipment setups. The supplied 0.5x C-mount objective and stereo-microscope adapters cover common mounting needs, and the calibration slide gives a reference scale before measuring.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trade name ScienceLab, supplies this 5 MP Wi-Fi camera from Ambala, Haryana, to schools, colleges, research labs, dealers and importers in India and international markets. It can be quoted on its own or with microscopes and slides. The ScienceLab company profile gives more background.

How does the 5mp Microscope Camera connect to phones and tablets?
The 5mp Microscope Camera streams H.264-encoded images over a Wi-Fi link secured with a key to several Wi-Fi enabled smartphones, tablets or computers at once. It supports iPad and iPhone, Android tablets and phones, and Windows 7, 8 and 10 computers.
How is the 5mp Microscope Camera powered?
The 5mp Microscope Camera is powered by the USB charger included in the box or through the USB port of a computer, using the supplied USB cable, so it can run from a classroom PC during a lesson.
What is included with the 5mp Microscope Camera?
The 5mp Microscope Camera comes with a 0.5x objective with C-mount, 30 mm and 30.5 mm to 23.2 mm stereo-microscope adapters, a 76 x 24 mm calibration slide, a USB charger and cable, a CD-ROM with ImageFocus Alpha software, an Android .apk app and a carton box.
Is the 5mp Microscope Camera suitable for moving specimens?
The 5mp Microscope Camera streams at up to 12 frames per second, which suits slides, sections, insects and plant material. For fast-moving organisms, a camera with a higher frame rate, such as the 2MP Digital USB-2 Colour Camera at up to 30 fps, may suit better.
What resolution does the 5mp Microscope Camera record?
The 5mp Microscope Camera uses a 1/2.5 inch CMOS sensor listed as 5.0 Mpix with 2.2 µm pixels, while its listed pixel format is 1280 x 720. Please confirm the capture and streaming resolution with us if a tender specifies it.
