Company history
From the deep ocean to outer reaches of space, our instruments make the visualization and measurement of challenging targets possible.
It all started with ideas on a napkin (we still have it). Our founder had a successful microscope dealership but launched Video Scope International, Ltd. (VSI) in 1982 to solve a problem that persistently frustrated customers: cameras could not record live cell events without external illumination and quite often that illumination overpowered the event itself or harmed the cells. The solution required low light level sensitivity so VSI pioneered the use of image intensifiers, which were developed for night vision, for use in scientific low light level imaging applications.
Technology
Image intensifiers were originally developed for night vision, however, it did not take long for the scientific community to realize their utility for a wide variety of scientific research applications.
Video Scope International, Ltd. (VSI) was founded to make lens-coupled image intensifier assemblies. This allowed scientists to image low light level events with their regular CCD cameras on their microscopes (microscopy).
