ZEPHIRTM Camera
Continuing its push to extend the boundaries of industrial imaging, Photon etc. presents the first affordable, deep-cooled SWIR camera operational from 800 nm to 2.5 μm. Based on a sensitive HgCdTe (MCT) FPA, and integrating a four-stage TE cooler, ZEPHIR™ delivers an astounding 346 frame-per-second rate while reaching unrivalled low noise levels. First designed for demanding faint-flux applications such as hyperspectral imaging, this latest offering in the SWIR domain is perfectly adapted to industrial applications in quality control and sorting.
