Some demo videos will be posted later in this article.
If you are not satisfied with CamApp you can use the Yawcam in order to get live stream from your USB microscope.ĬamApp can take snapshots and video captures. Notice that "Cooling tech" aka "Measurement" does not capture the USB microscope but as we can see later you can use it to do measurements from the taken photos with "CamApp". The two applications are presented below : CamApp CoolingTech I was forced to use the CamApp application for live microscope inspection. The "Cooling Tech" aka "Measurement" application haven't recognized the USB microscope at all (at least under Win 7 64 bit). This microscope came with two programs, one called "CamApp" and one called "Cooling Tech" (the "Measurement" program from the menu). I have also installed the "Measurement" program. The CD has a nice auto-run menu : Microscope USB Installation CDĭrivers worked well under Windows 7 64 bit version. Once done this modification i was able to use a classic "third hand" tool in order to place the PCB board underneath the microscope : Microscope & Third hand Some photos are posted below : USB Microscope Arm modification USB Microscope Arm modification different angle I was aware about that so i made a pretty simple modification. The given stand is without doubt an inspection only stand since the maximum distance between the microscope and the PCB can be few millimeters. It came with a mini CD with the drivers a little stand, a calibration rule, a plastic cover for the lens and the microscope itself. I bought this 800X microscope from e-bay and i must say that i was impatient to see its capabilities. Two main things bothered me : how responsive would be on a fast desktop computer and if the distance between the microscope and the PCB board would be enough for soldering elaboration. I have seen the excellent review of Todd Harrison which i highly recommend to watch before buying this gadget. I was very skeptical before buying this gadget.Įveryone seems to use it for general inspection and not as a real time soldering equipment.
A USB microscope can be useful for electronics or not ?
