All DVC cameras are instantly operational in both Microsoft® and Linux™ environments. Every camera includes our flagship DVCView application and a fully functional, high-performance ImageJ plugin providing an immediate demonstration of all camera features. DVC’s application-programming interface (API) was designed for imaging software developers to enable fast and easy integration. Our API operates all DVC cameras transparently, allowing easy migration without additional coding.
