X-ray instruments and X-ray systems use penetrating X-rays or gamma radiation to capture images of the internal structure of a part or finished product

Radiation detectors are used for medical diagnoses, radioactive dating measurements, and measurements of background radiation, activity levels and radiation doses.

TLD (Thermoluminescent dosimeters) and film badges are used to detect radiation at levels that can be harmful to humans.

Spectrometers are analytical instruments which disperse an emission (such as particles or radiation) according to some property of the emission (such as mass or energy) in order to measure the amount of the dispersion. This product area includes visible, infrared (IR), ultraviolet (UV), atomic absorption (AA), optical emission (OE), Raman, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and mass spectrometers. Specific search forms are also available.

Scintillation detectors and luminescence counters are used to detect gamma, x-ray and neutron radiation. They consist of a detector for sensing incident radiation and a photomultiplier for producing countable pulses

Video cameras take continuous pictures and generate signals for display or recording. They capture images by breaking them down into a series of lines. This search form does not include consumer devices such as camcorders.

Non-destructive testing (NDT) equipment is used to detect, inspect, and measure flaws, bond integrity, and other material conditions without permanently altering or destroying the examined part or product.

Corrosion and electrochemical instruments use a variety of methods to detect and measure corrosion and electrochemical conditions in plant machinery, field equipment, batteries, fuel cells, colloids, and other solutions or systems.

UV and visible spectrometers measure the amount of ultraviolet (UV) and visible light transmitted or absorbed by a sample placed in the spectrometer.

Solar radiation instruments measure the spectral range of radiation, including global solar radiation (sun + sky), net radiation (incoming solar - reflected solar) and the photosynthetic light spectrum.

Vision sensors are machine vision video cameras with integrated signal processing and imaging electronics. They typically include program and data interfaces.

Flat panel displays (FPDs) are thin, flat, electronic devices used to display data. They are commonly used in notebook computers. Most styles include the housing and ports necessary to connect them to a computer.

Photoconductive cells are light-sensitive resistors, in which resistance decreases with an increase in light intensity when illuminated.

Complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) cameras use image sensors that operate at lower voltages than charged coupled devices (CCDs), reducing power consumption for portable applications. Each CMOS active pixel sensor cell has its own buffer amplifier, and can be addressed and read individually. 

Nanotechnology materials and nanotechnology products have features or particle sizes in the range of 1 to 100 nm.
