Introduces Calibrated OEM Thermal Imaging Core

We have announced its latest thermal imaging core, Muon™, which is designed specifically for volume OEMs capable of integrating uncooled FPAs into their own camera solutions.

We have greatly simplified the OEM process by offering a thermal subassembly that generates calibrated CMOS video out, using industry-standard interfaces. Because Muon is calibrated for TEC-less operation, OEMs no longer have to develop their own elaborate factory calibration equipment or processes. Muon is a thermal “engine” developed to operate on standard imaging device power and communication protocols.

Muon is17µ pitch Vandium Oxide (VOx) 640×512 or 336×256 FPAs and offers frame rates of 9Hz and up to 60Hz. Optimized for size, weight and power (SWaP), Muon has a form factor of 22 mm x 22 mm x 6 mm, a mass of less than 5 grams, and depending on the configuration, uses less than 300mW of power.

Muon is an innovative solution for OEM manufacturers intent on using their own image processing, packaging and optical technologies. It gives our customers greater flexibility, while reducing up front manufacturing costs.

Our advanced systems and components are used for a wide variety of thermal imaging core, situational awareness, and security applications, including airborne and ground-based surveillance, condition monitoring, navigation, recreation, research and development, manufacturing process control, search and rescue, drug interdiction, transportation safety, border and maritime patrol, environmental monitoring, and chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives (CBRNE) threat detection.
