M-Wave 640 Continuous Zoom InSb Camera

New from IRcameras, and in partnership with Computer Optics, Inc. (see IRzoom.com), the M-Wave 640CZ MWIR camera combines the sensitivity found only with InSb detectors with a powerful new 20X continuous zoom optic. With temperature sensitivity of <25 milliKelvin, the M-Wave 640 is suitable for demanding thermal imaging requirements including tracking, long range surveillance surveillance, target signature and R&D applications.

The M-Wave is based on a 640 x 512 InSb focal plane array with a 15 micron pixel size. Choose from either a 15mm to 300mm continuous zoom mid wave infrared lens, or for ultra long range applications, a 30mm to 600mm optic is available. The M-Wave 640CZ offers both analog video and simultaneous CameraLink digital output. Both the camera and zoom lens are controlled via a serial communications interface.

For data acquisition and analysis, IRcameras offers both turnkey packages as well as custom designed application specific software solutions.
