SWaP+C Optimized HOT FPA MWIR Camera Module
The VGA-resolution Neutrino LC and newly-released SXGA-resolution Neutrino SX8 provide best-in-class MWIR imagery and data in a small, lightweight package. Based on Teledyne FLIR’s High Operating Temperature (HOT) FPA technology and linear micro-cooler, SWaP series camera modules are designed for ruggedized products requiring long life, low-power consumption, and quiet, low-vibration operation. Both are ideal for small gimbals and airframes, handheld devices, security cameras, targeting devices, and asset monitoring applications. The Neutrino SWaP Series is simply the best technical solution available.
