OMT Camera vs Microscope Camera Remote

OMT Camera allows you to use your phone as a camera that supports the Open Media Transport protocol. Simply connect your phone to the same network as your OMT reciever or switcher, such as vMix, and use your phone just as you would any other OMT or NDI supporting camera.

Microscope Camera Remote is a powerful companion to the macOS Microscope Camera app that transforms your iPhone's camera into a high-quality image source for microscopy. The app streams video and photos from iPhone cameras directly to your Mac via the NDI protocol, delivering uncompressed, lossless image transfer. The perfect microscopy solution Whether you're a researcher, educator, lab technician, or microscopy enthusiast, Microscope Camera Remote lets you leverage iPhone's high-quality sensors to capture images through a microscope eyepiece. Simply mount your iPhone above the eyepiece using an adapter — and you'll have a professional documentation system right on your desk. KEY FEATURES: ◆ Independent access to each camera — use any of your iPhone's rear cameras separately (wide, telephoto, ultra-wide) with the full range of available formats and resolutions. ◆ Manual focus control — a critical feature for microscopy that lets you precisely focus on the eyepiece image without autofocus interference. ◆ White balance adjustment — compensate for different types of microscope illumination (halogen, LED, fluorescent) to achieve natural specimen colors. ◆ Zoom scale control — frame your specimen so it fills the entire image area. ◆ Manual exposure control — get optimal brightness for any lighting conditions. Easy control from macOS All camera settings are managed directly from the Microscope Camera app on macOS. This means you work at your primary workstation while the iPhone simply serves as the camera — no need to constantly touch the device's screen during capture. NDI image transmission The app uses the industry-standard NDI (Network Device Interface) protocol for video transmission over your local network. Images are transferred without compression, ensuring maximum quality for documentation, analysis, and publication. IMPORTANT — before using: ◆ The app does not stream video in the background or during incoming/outgoing calls ◆ A fast and stable Wi-Fi network is required, as images are transmitted without compression or quality loss ◆ Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) or newer is recommended, with both iPhone and Mac connected to the same local network ◆ Requires the Microscope Camera app for macOS Who is this app for: ◆ Biologists, microbiologists, and chemists ◆ Science teachers and students ◆ Medical laboratories ◆ Geologists and mineralogists ◆ Collectors and microscopy enthusiasts ◆ Anyone who needs high-quality microscopy image documentation Connect, configure from your Mac, and capture the microscopic world in details that were previously out of reach.
