Overview

640×512 polarimetric LWIR module at 7μm pixel pitch. Detects camouflaged targets and discriminates materials by polarization signature. CameraLink, 45×45mm.

Key Features

How Polarimetric LWIR Works

  • Man-made surfaces emit thermally polarized radiation due to their smooth, uniform geometry.

Key Features

  • 7 μm pixel pitch — highest spatial sampling in the product range
  • Polarimetric discrimination — reveals camouflaged targets against natural backgrounds
  • 45×45 mm compact format — adaptable to research instruments and specialized payloads
  • CameraLink interface — industry-standard for scientific and industrial imaging
