The Shortwave Infrared Imager from LEADIR represents a pinnacle in integrated sensing. By combining a 640×512 resolution InGaAs detector with a 15μm pixel pitch and a high-precision motorized zoom lens, this camera excels in identifying targets that are invisible to the naked eye or standard thermal cameras.
The system is highly effective at penetrating atmospheric challenges such as fog, smoke, and haze. It also possesses the unique ability to image through common glass and silicon wafers, making it indispensable for long-range surveillance, laser detection, and industrial monitoring. With advanced functions like one-click focus and electric zoom/focus, operators can rapidly respond to fast-changing environments.
