Access Data that Matter
Autonomously detect up to 90% of rare events in biological samples using the AI-powered image analysis software Aivia. Get high-quality results faster.
- Reduce the total time you spend in front of the microscope by 75%.
- Shorten acquisition times for high-value data by up to 70% .
- Increase data quality and save space on your hard drive by detecting only objects of interest .
Power to See More
The Power HyD detector family provides higher photon detection efficiency (PDE)** extremely low dark noise, and sensitive spectral detection from 410 to 850 nm.
- Enhanced image quality: STELLARIS provides an ideal combination of brightness, resolution and contrast.
- Complete spectral freedom: Our next-generation White Light Lasers which allow a perfect match to the fluorochrome allows you to simultaneously use up to 8 single excitation lines from 440 nm to 790 nm.
- Gentle Live Cell Imaging: Preserve your sample’s integrity through efficient signal acquisition at the lowest required levels of illumination.
**2x higher Photon Detection Efficiency (PDE) compared to conventional multi-alkali Photomultiplier Tubes (PMT) and 3x higher in the extended red range .

Potential to Discover More
STELLARIS unique TauSense technology allows you to extract an extra layer of information from every sample and increase the scientific impact of your research. TauSense is comprised of application-oriented imaging tools based on fluorescence lifetime that you can use to explore the function of molecules within the cellular context.
- TauContrast provides immediate access to functional information, such as metabolic status, pH, and ion concentration.
- TauGating improves the quality of your images by removing unwanted fluorescence contributions.
- TauSeparation helps you expand the combination of fluorescent signals in your experiment beyond the spectral options.
- TauInteraction provides straightforward detection and quantification of molecular interactions (e.g. protein-protein interaction).
