Description
The Pr-GE SWIR camera module is a compact industrial short-wave infrared (SWIR) area array camera designed for integration into machine vision and inspection systems. It incorporates a high-sensitivity InGaAs focal plane detector and an adaptive image-processing algorithm, supports high frame-rate operation with ROI windowing, and includes active temperature control for stable performance. Multiple output interfaces (USB3.0, Camera Link, CVBS) and a C‑mount enable flexible integration into inspection lines and laboratory setups.
