Thermal Core 640
Thermal Core 640 is a module for defence, industrial, and commercial integrators with an optimised 12 μm 640 x 480 focal plane array (FPA) with easy-to-access interface options
Pyrosens Thermal Core 640 is a compact size module designed to interface easily into consumer electronics and mobile devices. It captures input in its nominal response wavelength from 8 – 14 µm and provides output of a uniform thermal image.
The Thermal Core 640 can cement its place as the go-to thermal camera module for defence, industrial, and commercial integrators with an optimised 12 μm 640 x 480 focal plane array (FPA) with easy-to-access interface options.
Key Features
- One time user programmable defaults ( Initialization of setting no longer required at start up)
- Integrated digital thermal image processing functions, including automatic thermal environment compensation, noise filters, non uniformity correction and gain control
- Optional temperature stable output to support radiometric processing
- Integral shutter configuration
- Long wave infrared sensor, wavelength 8 to 14 microns
