Request InfoChromasens GmbHKONSTANZ, Germany, July 22, 2022 — The allPIXA SWIR 512 line-scan camera from Chromasens GmbH is designed for the nondestructive inspection of objects in the IR spectrum. Simple to integrate with a choice of GigE Vision or Camera Link interfaces, the cost-effective SWIR camera enables the detection of minute defects or contaminants. Leveraging an uncooled InGaAs sensor, the allPIXA SWIR 512 images in the 950- to 1700-nm range, identifying defects and distinguishing objects by absorption, reflection, or transmission characteristics. It delivers 512 × 1 resolution and benefits from 25- × 25-μm square pixels....See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSVision Spectra Spring 2022 IssueSWIR Imaging PackageChromasens GmbH has announced a SWIR imaging package that includes its allPIXA SWIR line scan camera and the Corona II dark field illumination system with short-wave LEDs.

Each approach exhibits advantages and disadvantages, depending on the type of light detector and acquisition method employed.The term fluorescence is often applied as a synonym for photoluminescence, although luminescence actually covers fluorescence and phosphorescence. Both of these terms describe the process of...WHITEPAPERSPhotonics.com 7/1/2021Extended Range SWIR Imaging with C-RED 2 ER InGaAs CameraC-RED 2 ER is a highly sensitive extended short wave infrared (1300 nm – 2200 nm) camera.
