The SenS 1280 is a high-performance SXGA format SWIR camera, based around a 1280×1024 InGaAs imaging sensor with 10µm pixel pitch that ensures superior detail and sharpness. With a compact footprint and weighing less than 400 grams, it can be easily integrated into a variety of drone and robotic vehicle designs.
The versatile camera features a linear response mode that enables maximum sensitivity even under challenging low-light conditions. It provides a number of I/O interfaces including USB 3.0, CameraLink, HD-SDI, and CoaXPress, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of systems.
The SenS 1280 is available as a standard version as well as a Smart variant that provides advanced image processing capabilities such as automatic gain control (AGC) and automatic integration time (AIT), eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
The WiDy SenS is a compact SWIR camera core based around a 15μm pixel pitch InGaAs sensor and available in qVGA (320×256) and VGA (640×512) versions. The versatile camera features a unique dual-response capability that enables switching between a linear mode for maximum sensitivity in low-light conditions, and a logarithmic mode for maximum dynamic range under changing imaging conditions.
Weighing less than 215 grams, the compact camera core is ideal for SWaP-restricted drones and unmanned systems. A variety of I/O options are provided including USB3.0, CamLink, GigE, analog and SDI, and the WiDy SenS 640 is also available in an embedded form factor.
