SUI (Sensors Unlimited), suppliers of shortwave infrared (SWIR) imaging systems based on indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) technology, has introduced the SU320KTS family of snapshot video cameras.
Compact InGaAs video camera for SWIR imaging
SUI (Sensors Unlimited) will be exhibiting a indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) SWIR video camera, the SU320KTSX-1.7RT, at the Defense and Security Symposium in Orlando, Florida, April 10 -12, 2007.
The indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) shortwave infrared camera is designed for low-light conditions and day/night operation, imaging in partial starlight to direct sun illumination.
Available as either an OEM imaging module (<3.8 in cubed) or enclosed in a robust housing (<10.1 in cubed), both camera packages include a C-mount lens adapter and lens.
SUI's KTX delivers clear, real-time video images with the highest sensitivity available in the 900 nm to 1700 nm wavelength with a 320 x 240 pixel format on a 40-micron pitch focal plane array.
It offers 12-bit images and wide dynamic range for image processing and transmission via EIA-170 and Camera Link digital output.
The high quantum efficiency SWIR KTX camera is suitable for all low-light-level imaging tasks including imaging spectroscopy, astronomy, covert and fixed-site surveillance, laser applications, emission microscopy and machine vision systems.
Shipping now in OEM quantities, the KTX is also ideal for easy integration into unmanned aerial and ground vehicles, robotic, portable and other handheld systems.
SUI has pioneered the design and production of shortwave infrared components, cameras and systems utilising advanced indium gallium arsenide imaging technology for industrial, commercial, military, agricultural and biomedical markets.
