Accu-Scope Excelis HD is a 1080p HDMI and USB digital microscope camera designed for clinical microscopy, pathology, biology, education, industrial inspection, training, measurement, and documentation. Its 6MP Sony color CMOS sensor provides live full-HD viewing at 25 fps through HDMI and computer-connected imaging at up to 30 fps through USB 2.0.
The Excelis HD can operate directly through an HD monitor without a computer, connect to a Windows or Mac computer through USB 2.0, or provide simultaneous live output to both. Built-in software supports image capture, video recording, calibration, measurement, annotation, comparison, and camera control, while CaptaVision+ adds advanced computer-based imaging and analysis tools.

• Electronics, components, and materials inspection
• Stereo microscope and compound microscope imaging
• Classroom instruction, demonstration, and training
• Measurement, annotation, reporting, and digital archiving
Simultaneous HDMI and USB Output: The Excelis HD can display a live full-HD microscope image on an HDMI monitor while also sending the image to a Windows or Mac computer through USB 2.0. This allows users to combine comfortable live monitor viewing with computer-based capture, measurement, analysis, and documentation.
Standalone Imaging Without a Computer: Connect the camera directly to an HD monitor and use the included USB mouse to control exposure, white balance, color temperature, image capture, video recording, calibration, measurements, annotations, scale bars, crosslines, image comparison, and other onboard functions.
1080p Live Imaging and 6MP Capture: The Excelis HD provides 1920 × 1080 live HDMI output at 25 fps and captures detailed 3264 × 1836 still images. Images and video can be saved directly to the included high-speed 8GB SD card, allowing routine documentation without a dedicated computer workstation.
CaptaVision+ Imaging Software: Included CaptaVision+ software for Windows and Mac provides camera control, live and still-image measurement, calibration, annotation, real-time flat-field correction, ROI and mask tools, histograms, image smoothing, focus stacking, image stitching, HDR, fluorescence imaging controls, report generation, and data export.
Optional Camera-Mounted Monitor: The AU-600-HDS configuration includes a mountable 13.3-inch HD monitor that attaches directly to the camera. This creates a compact, space-saving imaging station and supports a comfortable heads-up viewing position without occupying additional bench space.
NDAA-Compliant Design: The Excelis HD is compliant with Section 889 of the National Defense Authorization Act and does not use electronics or components from prohibited suppliers, making it suitable for government, institutional, defense, and regulated purchasing environments.

Computer Compatibility: CaptaVision+ supports compatible Windows and Mac computers. Accu-Scope recommends an Intel Core i5 processor or better, 16GB RAM or more, and a high-speed USB 2.0 port or higher. Confirm current operating-system compatibility before installation on managed institutional or laboratory computers.
Microscope Compatibility: The Excelis HD uses a standard C-mount interface and can be adapted to many trinocular compound microscopes, stereo microscopes, inverted microscopes, industrial inspection microscopes, and other optical imaging systems. A 0.35× C-mount adapter is recommended to provide appropriate sensor coverage and field of view.
Why Choose the Excelis HD? Choose this camera when you need smooth 1080p microscope imaging, standalone HDMI operation, simultaneous computer connectivity, onboard measurement tools, 6MP still-image capture, and advanced CaptaVision+ software without moving to a more expensive 4K system. Empire Optics is an authorized Accu-Scope representative and can help confirm microscope compatibility, select the correct C-mount adapter, and configure the imaging system for your application.
