Scientific & Industrial Camera by First Light Imaging

Note: Your Quotation Request will be directed to First Light Imaging.

The C-RED 2 from First Light Imaging is an ultra high speed low noise camera designed for high resolution Short Wave InfraRed imaging. It is capable of unprecedented performances: up to 400 images per second with a read out noise from 10 to 30 electrons. The camera integrates a 640 x 512 InGaAs PIN Photodiode detector with 15 µm pixel pitch for high resolution, which embeds an electronic shutter with integration pulses shorter than 1 µs. It is also capable of windowing and multiple regions of interest (ROI), allowing faster image rate while maintaining a very low noise. The camera measures 140 x 75 x 55 mm and is ideal for astronomical inspection, spectroscopy, laser communications and quality control applications. The software allows real time applications, and the interface is CameraLink full and superspeed USB3. It is designed to be updated remotely, and needs no human assistance to manage the cooling. The camera can operate in very low-light conditions as well as remote locations. Designed for high-end SWIR applications, smart and compact, C-RED 2 is operating over a wavelength range from 0.9 to 1.7 µm with a very good Quantum Efficiency over 70%.
