UTC Aerospace reveals snapshot SWIR camera

The high-resolution indium gallium arsenide camera is able to capture images in smoke, fog and haze for use surveillance
UTC Aerospace Systems, a unit of United Technologies, is introducing its next generation Sensors Unlimited shortwave infrared (SWIR) digital video camera at AUVSI Unmanned Systems North America Exhibition, August 6th to 9th, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

This high-resolution InGaAs mil-rugged digital video camera features 30Hz full-frame rate and adds snapshot mode capability to the Sensors Unlimited high-definition SWIR product range. The camera, model GA1280JS, will be showcased at the UTC Aerospace Systems booth #2654 at Mandalay Bay Convention Centre.




GA1280JS SWIR camera

The camera weighs less than 120 grams or 4 ounces without lens and is less than 4.5 cubic inches or 74 cubic centimetres. This, allows for easy integration into aerial, mobile and hand-held imaging systems.

Ideally suited to low-light imaging and covert surveillance requirements, the SWIR camera is able to capture images through smoke, fog and haze, which makes the camera suitable for integration into a variety of surveillance and reconnaissance systems.

Cooling is not required with the JS-series InGaAs SWIR camera. What's more, it features on-board, automatic gain control and real-time non-uniformity corrections that improve urban night imaging, such as capturing a dark scene that contains bright light sources.

The Sensors Unlimited model GA1280JS has been tested to MIL-STD-810G for functional shock, vibration, thermal shock, storage temperature, altitude, humidity and acceleration.
