Download nowThe NightShade uses an ultrasensitive back-illuminated (backlit) CCD camera with high quantum efficiency over the entire visible to near-infrared spectrum. Cooling to a delta of -100°C ensures the lowest background and highest sensitivity, even at long exposure times. In addition, the camera can be mounted either on top of the instrument to take images from above or laterally for side view images, enabling you to maintain seedlings upright in their natural vertical orientation.
The NightShade helps creating a standardized environment for your experiment.
The NightShade provides a light-tight imaging chamber that you can set up according to your experimental needs:
The user-friendly IndiGO™ software controls the instrument and makes image processing easy. It provides the following innovative features:
Daylight simulation: a set of 2 LED panels, 4 colours each can be mounted at different heights inside the imaging chamber for daylight simulation. With IndiGO™ software you can control intensity and duration of each colour individually to provide homogeneous illumination up to 1,800 μE or 15,000 Lux.
