What is SWIR Imaging?

Short-wave Infrared imaging (SWIR) is a method for producing high-quality images using radiation from the invisible region of the electromagnetic range. What is SWIR Imaging? The MWIR/LWIR spectral band will detect thermal emissions of all objects above absolute zero (0K), allowing thermographic cameras the ability to produce images based on temperature variations in a specific [...]

What is SWIR Light?

What is SWIR light? SWIR (Short-wave infrared) light is typically defined as light in the 0.9 – 1.7μm wavelength range, but can also be classified from 0.7 – 2.5μm. Since silicon sensors have an upper limit of approximately 1.0μm, SWIR imaging requires unique optical and electronic components capable of performing in the specific SWIR range. [...]
