Out of the Box
General
NanEye Fiber Optic Box 2.0 is a fully embedded all in one image processing unit that interfaces the
NanEye® micro camera head signals and provides an output of 1080p/60 format HDMI video signal
which can be directly plugged to a HDMI compatible monitor, which in this mode no additional PC or
image processing is required.
The USB3 interface allows the connection to the NanEye Viewer running on a PC to get access to the
sensor’s raw images and control settings.
The demo kit includes a fiber light source, which provides light to the tip of the NanEye® Sensor probe
via a 0.5 mm plastic optic fiber. The fiber and NanEye® camera are housed in a 2.3 mm diameter of
1 m cable length that can be plugged and unplugged easily from the processing and illumination unit.
The illumination intensity is adjustable by a manual dial. The unit is supplied by 12 V DC. It can
interface to any standard monitor with HDMI input. The main body of the demo kit measures only
17 cm x 17 cm x 5.6 cm and provides all necessary video processing and display driving plus the
adjustable illumination.
