Features
The Venus HOT series is an integration-ready platform designed for long-range thermal imaging applications where sensitivity, image clarity and superior optical performance are essential. The camera is built around an advanced 15 μm pitch Type ll Strained Layer Superlat-tice (T2SL) detector. This “HOT” MWIR detector operates at temperatures far warmer than traditional InSb MWIR detectors, which means lower strain on the cooling mechanism, rapid cool-down times, and longer overall cooler life and time between maintenance.
Continuous zoom F4.0 lens models include 15-300 mm, 35-690 mm and 45-900 mm options. The sensor images in the MWIR waveband tuned for very high atmospheric transmission with no absorption by suspended water vapor and CO2. A powerful processing engine provides electronic image stabilization, digital zoom, automatic/manual gain control, adaptive contrast control (CLAHE/LAP), target tracking and detection, stock and user-defined LUTs, and 32GB of onboard video/still storage. The control and video interface offers digital (CameraLink) and analog video as well as an H.264-encoded IP stream. Command is over RS422/RS232 serial and/or Ethernet using command and hardware interfaces standardized across the Ventus™ and Vinden LR™ product lines.
