OEM camera solutions
The ideal OEM camera partner for diverse requirements
Hamamatsu Photonics has developed optimized camera designs for detecting a wide range of wavelengths and energy levels, from X-rays to near-infrared light and even electron beams. These designs address key performance requirements such as speed and resolution. For embedded applications, a high degree of design flexibility and an adaptable production framework enable the long-term supply of OEM cameras tailored to customer requirements.
Broad lineup of cameras for diverse applications
We offer a wide range of cameras equipped with image sensors featuring unique characteristics to meet diverse customer requirements. For embedded applications, we can also propose customized solutions based on our existing camera platforms.
Flexible and application‑focused customization
Based on existing camera platforms, flexible customization can be implemented according to the intended application and installation environment. In addition, fully custom-designed cameras are available for specific customer requirements. Hamamatsu maintains a broad portfolio of in-house core technologies, including image sensors, sensor packaging, FOPs (fiber optic plates), scintillators, and vacuum flanges. These technologies are integrated to deliver optimized designs from the sensor level through to the complete camera system.

Rapid camera selection support utilizing simulation technology
Using a proprietary simulation engine developed from our many years of experience in photodetector development, we can quickly propose optimized camera configurations tailored to specific applications and operating environments. When necessary, comparative evaluations including third-party cameras can also be performed, enabling more objective and flexible camera selection.
Customer-centric development
At Hamamatsu Photonics, camera development extends beyond standalone cameras to include system products incorporating peripheral components such as optical systems and stages. This system-level expertise allows us to develop cameras with a deep understanding of imaging environments and customer requirements. By leveraging a wide range of internal and external resources, we enhance development flexibility and responsiveness, enabling rapid, high-quality camera development.
Direct support by engineers
With engineers stationed around the world, we have established a framework that enables direct and rapid support for customers facing technical challenges. Based on a clear understanding of customer applications, our knowledgeable staff provide assistance ranging from product specification consultations to post-installation technical support.
Support for software compatibility
We provide driver software, DCAM-API®, for controlling Hamamatsu cameras, as well as the software development kit DCAM-SDK for developing customer-specific software, enabling flexible support for embedded system integration. Compatibility with third-party software is also considered, allowing smooth integration into existing analysis environments and workflows. With intuitive operation and stable performance, this software environment is designed for ease of use not only by software developers, but also by researchers and engineers.
Application examples
Hamamatsu Photonics OEM cameras are used across a wide range of fields, from research to industrial applications.
