Camera Control Driver and Source Code
Apogee Software Development Kit (SDK) provides DLL's, source code, API calls, and documentation to Apogee Instruments' customers and approved 3rd party developers.
The complete SDK contains source code written in C++, allowing you to compile into a variety of applications. A common software interface is used for all physical camera types. All camera-specific parameters are contained in an initialization file (.INI). Once you adopt camera control for one camera, you have control of ALL Apogee Instruments cameras.

MicroCCD (Microscopy)
MicroCCD was specifically designed for Apogee Instruments to meet the needs of microscope users who want to take high quality images without a steep learning curve. Designed for use in bright field and fluorescence microscopy applications, MicroCCD provides smooth trouble-free operation of a still-frame CCD camera such as the Apogee Instruments A2000 and A4000. Combined with a color filter wheel or LCD tunable filter, the package produces images of unparalleled quality.
- One-button color imaging including automatic color filter sequencing, automatic exposure duration
- Simple calibration procedure for best image quality
- Quick and easy color balance adjustment
- Includes an array of image processing tools
- Supports popular file formats
