Infrared Detector Characteristics

Detector Type and Spectral Response

The core utilizes a vanadium oxide (VOx) microbolometer detector with a spectral response from 8 to 14 μm, suitable for long-wave infrared (LWIR) imaging. This range is particularly effective for detecting thermal signatures in diverse atmospheric conditions, such as fog, haze, or low light.

Resolution and Sensitivity

Resolution: 640 × 512 pixels with a 12 μm pixel pitch enables detailed scene reproduction.

Thermal Sensitivity (NETD): ≤40 mK ensures subtle temperature differences are discernible, crucial for surveillance, search-and-rescue, and navigation applications.

Image Adjustment and Processing

Display Optimization

The system provides flexible image tuning:

Brightness/Contrast: Auto or manual adjustment to adapt to scene conditions.

Polarity: White Hot or Black Hot modes to suit operator preference.

Color Palettes: Iron, Iron Invert, Rainbow, and Feather for enhanced interpretation of thermal data.

Image Processing Features

Advanced algorithms ensure superior image clarity:

Non-Uniformity Correction (NUC) for detector calibration.

Digital Filter Noise Reduction to suppress random interference.

Detail Enhancement to sharpen edges and improve readability.

Electronic Zoom (x1, x2, x4) and image mirroring (vertical/horizontal) for flexible field-of-view adjustment.

High stable sensitivity,clear and imaging

High frame rate, smooth video stream

Highly integrated and convenient for secondary development
