CORK, Ireland, Jan. 5, 2017 — Researchers at the University College Cork, Ireland have developed a visible short-wave infrared (SWIR) dual simultaneous band CAOS camera. The new camera demonstrated an extreme 136-dB dynamic range capability, a 56-dB improvement over previous CAOS camera demonstrations. Current multipixel sensor cameras face difficulty when viewing extreme contrast multispectral bright and weak targets over broad spectral bands. The demonstrated CAOS camera allows precise and smart spatial as well as spectral capture of the previously invisible multicolor targets by transforming the incident light...Read full articleRelated content from Photonics Media
