Teledyne unveils compact thermal camera core

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 4 -- Teledyne, a leading developer and manufacturer of high-performance digital cameras and custom imaging solutions via its Teledyne DALSA product lines, has introduced the MicroCalibir™, a new compact, low-power camera platform.

This latest uncooled thermal camera platform features the smallest VGA IR core module on the market, making it ideal for OEM drones, handhelds, helmet-mounted and vehicular integration products.

According to a statement, the development of the small and lightweight MicroCalibir is a result of the latest advances made by Teledyne DALSA’s integration of their in-house 12 μm microbolometer pixel technology with a deep-ADC ROIC circuit.

Its pocket-sized 21 x 21 mm format offers the latest Size Weight and Power (SWaP) optimisation for this type of LWIR imager, with very high dynamic range.

Furthermore, the cameras can reach very low, sub-30mK, NETD levels by utilising advanced, user selectable noise filtering algorithms.

The MicroCalibir platform delivers accurate and high-end thermal capabilities and can be configured by resolution, field of view, and frame rate, delivering optimal performance in applications including UAVs, security and surveillance, outdoor recreation/personal vision systems, and firefighting.

MicroCalibir cameras and cores are available in QVGA and VGA resolutions and a variety of lens options. Its modular design allows for different interface options, for today and for the future. 

Current available interfaces are LVCMOS, and USB2, a CSI2 version will follow later in 2021.
