Typhoon 8600 Variable Mode Imager

Typhoon :-)    
The Typhoon imager offers multi-color fluorescence, chemifluorescence, chemiluminescence and filmless autoradiography in one instrument. Laser excited, pixel-by-pixel fluorescence measurement eliminates fluorescent blooming and provides better resolution than conventional systems. The machine's dual lasers and two detectors enable the investigator to employ multiple simultaneous colors and to choose from a wide range of fluorescent probes.
