New technique improves thermal transient
capture

A new feature on the popular Jade range of IR cameras increases the dynamic range by a factor or four, providing the equivalent of a 16bit dynamic range.

A new feature on the popular Jade range of IR cameras increases the dynamic range by a factor or four, providing the equivalent of a 16bit dynamic range The new feature called "multiple exposure" combines several subframes taken with a variable integration time

Using Composer, a new software module, users can recombine subframes and rescale them in an appropriate manner so that the overall dynamic range is greatly increased.

Composer then processes the images and provides an equivalent dynamic range of 16bit.

Composer is now part of Cedip's powerful, yet intuitive Altair software platform and is available as a plug-in software module.

The innovative technique allows a Jade MWIR (3-5um) camera to cover a dynamic range of -20 to +900C in a single range, and is particularly appropriate for demanding applications such as measuring transient thermal phenomena over a large temperature range.
