Surveyor with Turboscan Superfast, Image Mapping and Montaging Software. Objective Imaging's Surveyor automated scanning and imaging with Turboscan enables scanning and near perfect-image mosaic creation at camera frame rates. This product is designed to work with OASIS stage and camera control hardware (extra).
Scan the entire slide in seconds, and then effortlessly relocate to areas of interest with a simple click. Quickly get the specimen overview to aid in understanding the relationships between microscopic features and overall structure. Save your work for later review, discussion, and publication.
Based on the OASIS-blue controller with the BLUE-EXPIO Encoder and Trigger interface module or OASIS-AF analog video processor option, Surveyor with Turboscan provides everything a microscopist needs for surveying, relocating, printing and saving at a new standard in high-performance automation.
