Imec premieres SWIR hyperspectral camera

At the 2018 edition of SPIE Photonics West in San Francisco, imec presented its first shortwave infrared (SWIR) range hyperspectral imaging camera.

Reflected light in the SWIR range reveals a wealth of information on a variety of materials. This opens the door to exciting applications in machine vision, agriculture and medicine.

Imec’s SWIR camera combines CMOS-based spectral filters with InGaAs-based imagers. This results in a highly compact and affordable device that can capture discriminative spectral data in the 1000 – 1700 nm range.
