Imaging system captures 200 IR images a
second
Using a continuously rotating filter wheel, synchronised with the FPA detector, the Orion captures a single snap-shot image for each filter position, enabling true multispectral imaging.
Cedip Infrared Systems has released the Orion infra-red multispectral imaging system, capable of producing IR sub-band images at video rate within the SW-MWIR or LWIR regions The Orion uses the latest focal plane array (FPA) detector technology along with a large dynamic range and real-time electronics to handle applications such as IR signature analysis, gas detection, flame analysis, environmental studies and target / background characterisation

The Altair Li system can be used to rapidly determine the material's fatigue limit and provide information on the damage mechanism involved.
The FPA detector is capable of capturing up to 200 high-quality images per second in snap-shot mode.
The camera integration time is software-variable and can be different for each filter.
Using a continuously rotating filter wheel, synchronised with the FPA detector, the Orion captures a single snap-shot image for each filter position, enabling true multispectral imaging.
The Orion can also be used as a standard IR camera by stopping or removing the filter wheel.
Image data is processed in real-time by the onboard Altair software that operates under the Windows 2000/XP environment.
In addition to providing live image display and comprehensive image processing, Altair includes a suite of powerful, yet easy to use software modules for camera calibration, emissivity compensation and trigger configuration. Request a free brochure from Cedip Infrared Systems ...
