Established in 2011, Micro-X was the first company globally to commercialise a digital X-ray tube using Carbon Nano Tube (CNT) emitter technology. The technology breaks through the historical limitations of traditional X-ray and has enabled the development of smaller, lighter, faster and more precisely controlled X-ray imaging systems.

In 2016 Micro-X was contracted by a Five Eyes (FVEY) alliance country to develop a self-contained Stand-Off Backscatter Imaging Concept Demonstrator, based on our unique CNT technology.

The Argus X-ray Camera is a direct result of this development program.
