Basler ace 2 X visSWIR
ace 2 X visSWIR cameras offer superior image quality in both the visible and shortwave infrared spectrum. Compact and cost-effective, they excel in applications such as penetrating complex structures or detecting hidden objects, where conventional SWIR cameras are too large or expensive.
Description
ace 2 X visSWIR cameras offer superior image quality in both the visible and shortwave infrared spectrum. Compact and cost-effective, they excel in applications such as penetrating complex structures or detecting hidden objects, where conventional SWIR cameras are too large or expensive.
The best of both worlds thanks to innovative firmware features. Our ace 2 X visSWIR cameras combine the high image quality of a cooled SWIR camera with the size and price of an uncooled SWIR camera...
SWIR (short wavelength infrared, or SWIR) sensors based on InGaAs technology tend to have pixel defects that become visible as white dots in the image. Longer exposure time or higher sensor temperature intensify this effect. Therefore, cooled cameras are often used, which has a detrimental effect on the size and price of SWIR cameras.
Pixel defect-free images thanks to Pixel Correction Beyond
Pixel defects, common in InGaAs sensors, can adversely affect image processing. Pixel Correction Beyond, a dynamic pixel defect correction technology, is a key factor behind the exceptional image quality of our SWIR cameras.
This feature uses an algorithm we developed to dynamically detect and correct pixel defects in real time within the camera’s FPGA, ensuring that image content remains undistorted. Image comparison highlights its impact at a sensor temperature of 35 °C and exposure time of 50 ms, demonstrating how Pixel Correction Beyond minimizes
