Assessing hyperspectral microscopy in real-time
The FireflEYE 185 brings hyperspectral imaging to microscopy, and also enables endoscopy. In life sciences the time-saving advantage of the snapshot technology (thanks to no-scanning) really makes itself known, as saving time saves patients. The camera can also monitor real-time processes, such as samples in petri dishes for example. The relay lens also allows for a lens change without camera re-calibration. And a close-up lens set allows a macroscopic scale view of a spot size of just a few mm.
For all scenarios
UAS Mapping – The FireflEYE 185 was the first-ever light-weight hyperspectral snapshot camera used for aerial mapping from a UAS. The user has a choice of lenses, enabling different fields of view for different tasks. In lab use the FireflEYE can be equipped with close-up lenses, allowing a macroscopic scale view with a spot size of only a few mm to cm. Attaching a relay lens to the FireflEYE provides for full interchangeability to Cmount lenses. Mount the camera on your microscope or endoscope without the need of an additional calibration. The latest improvements to the FireflEYE include upgrading the main sensor to a modern CMOS sensor. The 14-bit version has 2x higher signal-to-noise-ratio and 4x higher dynamic range compared to the S185 (needing 4 times longer integration times).

All Baldur cameras are Nyquist cameras giving a spectral resolution of 2 spectral bands while capturing 4 times as much light as the classic systems. To ensure that the most information per framerate is provided, the spectral resolution is kept very close to 2 bands. Additionally, the spatial resolution of Baldur S-384 N is better than 1.5 pixels, yielding a very sharp camera. | HySpex VS-1200 The HySpex VS-1200 hyperspectral camera is developed for airborne applications requiring extreme resolution in both VNIR and SWIR spectral regions. The HySpex VS-1200 is a novel high-resolution instrument designed for airborne applications at altitudes greater than 400m. The camera produces the highest scientific grade level data, commercially available, having FWHM less than 1.2 pixels spatially and less than 1.5 pixels spectrally. The combined VNIR-SWIR cube has coregistration errors, and smile and keystone of less than 10% of a pixel. With 40 degrees FOV, the camera is ideal for mapping large areas with high accuracy and resolution. The camera is delivered with an integrated high-performance IMU/GPS and data acquisition unit with removable storage bays as a standard. Existing navigation systems can also be integrated/utilized. A standard passive damping solution is included as a part of the default delivery package, but mounting plates for active damping solutions, such as GSM4000 or PAV80 can be supplied. | Specim FX10+ The Specim FX10+ is a high-speed line-scan hyperspectral camera optimized for applications requiring fast imaging. Its high resolution ensures accurate and detailed imaging at a rapid pace. Specim FX10+ operates in the visible and near-infrared (VNIR) region from 400 to 1000 nm. | Pika UV 330 - 800 nm Ultraviolet + Visible The Pika UV (formerly NUV2) is a hyperspectral camera that scans the Visible and Near Ultraviolet (VIS+NUV) spectral range. An optimized objective lens provides excellent imaging throughout the entire spectral range. Because halogen lights have low output in much of the NUV, Resonon offers an NUV lighting module to augment illumination for our desktop system. The Pika UV can be used in our airborne, laboratory, and outdoor hyperspectral systems, as well as standalone or integrated into your system. | HySpex VNIR-3000 N HySpex VNIR-3000 N is developed for field, laboratory, and airborne applications. HySpex VNIR-3000 N utilizes the same spectrograph as the other classical HySpex VNIR models. With a pixel size of 3.45?m, compared to 6. 5?m for VNIR-1800, HySpex VNIR-3000 N will have less than 1.6 pixels per FWHM of the PSF spatially and less than 1.8 bands spectrally, ensuring that narrow band features will be resolved equally for all cameras. With 3000 spatial pixels, 300 bands and a noise floor of 2.4e-, HySpex VNIR-3000N will provide outstanding SNR levels in dark environments. The camera is offered with a USB connection, allowing camera operation from any computer and reducing the cost of supplementing equipment. To visualize that the camera has a wider PSF per pixel and band relative to our normal extremely sharp cameras, we have added an N for Nyquist to the model name. |
