The camera features a GSENSE400BSI-TVISB scientific CMOS (sCMOS) sensor from Gpixel Inc., which is a 1.44 MPixel sensor with a 11 \u00b5m square pixel size that can achieve a frame rate of 41 fps in 16-bit and 82 fps in 12-bit. The Prime 95B, according to Photometrics, is optimized for low-light microscopy and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vision-systems.com\/articles\/print\/volume-21\/issue-3\/departments\/snapshots\/march-2016-snapshots-life-sciences-imaging-google-project-tango.html\">life sciences imaging<\/a> applications because of its ability to collect nearly all available light, and maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of the experiment while minimizing cellular photo damage.
