Sofradir EC : Atom 640
ATOM 640 CAMERA CORE: The ideal uncooled camera core for flexibility, compatibility and value
Uncooled & Cooled Infrared Detectors & Systems
Description
The Atom 640 is a full function, high performance, uncooled IR camera core supplied ready to integrate for a variety of demanding applications. It incorporates an advanced Gen2 640 x 512 microbolometer FPA and delivers clear, high resolution thermal images in an VGA format.
The Atom 640 performs in the LWIR spectral range, provides excellent thermal sensitivity and is ideal for long range detection in diverse weather and environmental conditions. Because of its small compact size, low power consumption, rich feature set and industry standard interfaces, the Atom 640 is easy to integrate and offered in a variety of configurations to speed up your own integration process.
The camera module is ideally suited for applications ranging from hand-held targeting (TWS), ground (UAG) and airborne (UAV) vehicles, 24/7 surveillance (LGA), search and rescue and fire control.
The Atom 640 is also available as a lab camera for R&D applications requiring high resolution thermal imaging performance and includes D*STAR, a desktop Digital Storage, Retrieval and Image Processing Software Suite.
Note: Export of these products from the United States is controlled by the US Dept. of Commerce. Prior authorization is required for re-export or transfer.
