Image Sensor Expansion
Dalsa Corp. of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada,
a digital imaging provider, has expanded its capabilities to include back-side illumination
in custom image sensors for aerospace applications in Earth observations and remote
sensing. Previously, the company’s sensors were used to obtain quality imaging
data to guide science and resource policies in government and industry. The multispectral,
hyperspectral and ultrahigh-resolution panchromatic image sensors will offer new
capabilities in aerospace applications.

Glossary
- hyperspectral imaging
- Hyperspectral imaging is an advanced imaging technique that captures and processes information from across the electromagnetic spectrum. Unlike traditional imaging systems that record only a few spectral bands (such as red, green, and blue in visible light), hyperspectral imaging collects data in numerous contiguous bands, covering a wide range of wavelengths. This extended spectral coverage enables detailed analysis and characterization of materials based on their spectral signatures.

- illumination
- The general term for the application of light to a subject. It should not be used in place of the specific quantity illuminance.
- remote sensing
- Remote sensing is a method of data collection and observation where information about objects, areas, or phenomena on Earth's surface is gathered from a distance, typically using sensors onboard satellites, aircraft, drones, or other platforms. This technique enables the monitoring and analysis of Earth's surface and atmosphere without direct physical contact.
Remote sensing systems capture electromagnetic radiation (such as visible light, infrared, microwave, or radio waves) reflected or...
