Sensors Unlimited Mini-SWIR JSX InGaAs Camera (1280x1024 pixels)
The UTC Sensors Unlimited Mini-SWIR™ JSX Snapshot Camera (GA1280JSX) provides real-time daylight to low-light imaging in the Short Wave Infrared (SWIR) wavelength spectrum for persistent surveillance, laser detection, and penetration through fog, dust, and smoke. In addition, the camera employs on-board Automatic Gain Control (AGC) and built-in non-uniformity corrections (NUCs), allowing it to address the challenges of high-dynamic-range urban night imaging without blooming. Camera Link® digital output provides for plug-and-play video with 12-bit images for digital image processing or transmission. The light-weight and compact size enables easy integration into aerial, mobile and hand-held surveillance systems. Optional NIR/SWIR technology is available to extend the sensitivity of Sensors Unlimited cameras down to 0.7 μm, offering the advantage of both Near Infrared (NIR) and SWIR wavelength response.
