| ATOM
1024 Uncooled LW IR Camera Modules
|
| Incorporates a 1024x768 microbolometer
detector array having state-of-the-art 17µm
pixel technology to deliver extremely high
resolution in an XGA format. Because of the
camera’s extremely high resolution, small compact
size and low power consumption, the ATOM 1024
is ideally suited for a wide range of military
and COTS thermal imaging systems. The ATOM
1024’s short thermal time constant produces
superior thermal image quality, even while
imaging fast moving objects, making the system
an ideal choice for handheld, ground vehicle
and airborne EOIR platforms, advanced fusion-based
night vision systems as well as high performance
commercial systems. |

| ATOM 640 Uncooled OEM Camera Module |
|
| Integrates advanced miniaturized electronics
and state-of-the-art 17 micron pixel technology
into the world’s smallest high resolution
thermal imaging module. Consuming less than
1W and with a tiny size, the ATOM 640 high
performance thermal imager is ideal for integration
into handheld thermal imaging product and
small unmanned platforms. Available in both
military and commercial qualified models,
the ATOM 640 delivers exceptional image quality
and includes a rich set of software features
and user interface options. |

| Cooled IR
Imaging Engines: SW, MW, LW and VLW IR
|
| These high performance infrared
imaging engines are based on cryogenically
cooled MCT infrared detectors. A variety of
models are available including short-wave SWIR
(800nm - 2.5μm), mid-wave MWIR (3-5μm or 1.5-5µm),
and long-wave LWIR (7.7-9.5μm or 7.7-11.5μm)
models. Because of their versatility, these
engines are ideal for easy integration into
a wide range of electro-optical systems delivering
exceptional sensitivity and spectral performance.
The engines harness the full performance of
the Sofradir IDDCAs while offering unique flexibility
to meet the needs of any application or OEM
requirement. Frame rate and integration time
are adjustable. In addition, the camera permits
detector sub-windowing at higher frame rates.
Camera communication occurs through a serial
interface. 14-bit digital data can be streamed
via LVDS or through optional Camera Link and/or
Gigabit Ethernet. An IRIG time stamp capability
is available as an option. A variety of software
developer toolkits (SDKs) and command software
modules are available for further flexibility. |

| D*STAR Software Suite |
 |
| The D*STAR digital storage
and retrieval and image processing software
suite for infrared imaging research and
development applications is a feature rich,
real-time image capture and thermal analysis
software for the Sofradir EC IRE line of
high performance infrared cameras. D*STAR
features a highly intuitive user interface
and a library of powerful tools that enable
the sophisticated analysis of thermal behavior
for a wide range of objects and materials. |

| Compact Cooled
IR Imaging Engine |
 |
The MiTIE is Sofradir EC’s smallest, lightest, lowest power cooled MWIR camera engine available today. The unit is based on a 15 micron pitch, high performance, low power, High Operating Temperature (HOT) Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) focal plane array. The MiTIE camera engine includes Sofradir’s LEO integrated detector/dewar/cooler assembly (IDDCA) and related imaging electronics.
The MiTIE electronics include camera control electronics and a cooler controller board. The camera outputs corrected or uncorrected NTSC/PAL video and 14-bit digital data. Communication is over a serial (LVTTL) or CamLink interface. An optional Ethernet module supports IP video data capture and communication. The MiTIE steady-state power consumption is less than <6 Watts. Weighing less than <0.5 kilograms and with ultra-low power consumption, the MiTIE is the ideal MWIR camera engine for applications that have demanding space/weight/power constraints. |
