01 / Product introduction

Product introduction

Using type-II superlattice (T2SL) high-operating-temperature (HOT) chip technology with an ultra-compact cooling assembly, this detector lifts chip operating temperature to 140 K and breaks past the constraints of conventional cooled infrared detectors. Cooldown completes in ≤2 min, steady-state draw falls to ≤3 W, and the complete assembly including controller weighs only ≤270 g — purpose-built for portable handheld terminals, lightweight UAV payloads and automotive night vision in strictly civil applications.

02 / Core application scenarios

Core application scenarios

01
Civil UAVs and unmanned systemsUltra-light electro-optical gimbals for power-line inspection, forest-fire early warning, search and rescue, and ecological monitoring.
02
Handheld portable thermal terminalsHandheld systems for industrial fault-finding, fire-service hot-spot detection and building energy-loss assessment.
03
Connected vehicles and automotive night visionDriver assistance for commercial and passenger vehicles, night-time pedestrian recognition and adverse-weather driving support.
04
Industrial automation and NDTOnline kiln monitoring, thermal-defect analysis of semiconductor chips and unattended 24/7 monitoring.

03 / Core advantages

Core advantages

01
High-temperature operation, very low powerA 140 K chip operating temperature cuts steady-state draw to ≤3 W, markedly extending runtime on portable equipment.
02
Ultra-light and compactThe complete assembly weighs ≤270 g including the controller, with a substantially reduced micro-Dewar and cooler volume for easy integration into light payloads.
03
Ready in under two minutesCooldown of ≤2 min (@23 °C) meets the needs of emergency inspection and rapid-response work.
04
High sensitivity and consistencyAn NETD of ≤18 mK and operability of ≥99.7% deliver clean, smooth thermal imagery around the clock.
