pco.edge 4.2 bi: Back Illuminated sCMOS
PCO-TECH Inc. Innovations aren’t always about having that one big new idea. Unique technology also comes from evolution, combining existing and new technology. When PCO’s tried and trusted pco.edge series pools forces with modern back illuminated (bi) 16 bit sCMOS sensor technology, we call the result: pco.edge 4.2 bi.

Materials and Methods for Smart Glass, Smart Windows, and Building Shells
Wed, Dec 5, 2018 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EST
This webinar will introduce a cost-efficient, high-performing smart glass system for windows, windshields, roof panes, and building envelopes. The system is based on a reflective structure that switches to transmissive when an index-matching fluid is introduced. You will learn about the technology used to develop and fabricate the smart glass system, including the use of optofluidics and 3D printing. The presenter, professor Keith Goossen, will also discuss future goals and potential applications for his smart heating, cooling and lighting system.
