HERA IPERSPETTRALE is a compact and rugged camera that enables an innovative approach to spectral imaging.
With its unique and patented technology based on time-domain Fourier Transform (FT) detection, HERA provides exceptional spatial-spectral resolution and superior sensitivity in low-light illumination conditions.
HERA is based on a Fourier Transform (FT) approach: the data-cube is acquired in the time-domain, by step-scanning a compact ultra-stable interferometer in front of the bidimensional sensor.
The software then automatically computes an FT at each and every pixel of the image, providing the final hyperspectral data-cube.
As a result of an FT, the spectrum at each pixel is a continuous curve, so the number of bands is virtually unlimited, not defined by the hardware.
As in any other FT techniques, the spectral resolution is not constant as a function of the wavelength. Also, the spectral resolution can be simply varied via software: at each measurement, you can decide whether to acquire a high spectral resolution-image, or – if not required – a faster and lower spectral resolution-image.
Regardless of this choice, the exceptional light throughput is not affected, thanks to the FT approach.

The state of the art MCT sensor with cooling down to 150K yields low background noise, high dynamic range, and exceptional SNR levels. With a max frame rate of 400 fps, combined with an aberration-corrected optical system with high optical throughput (f/2), the data quality, speed, and sensitivity is truly state of the art. A wide range of close-up lenses allows the use of the camera at working distances ranging from a few centimeters with a spatial resolution of 53 ?m to infinity e.g. airborne remote sensing. | HySpex Mjolnir S-620 The HySpex Mjolnir S-620 hyperspectral imaging system for UAVs is the SWIR version of the Mjolnir camera series. Similar to the VNIR version, it provides a unique combination of small form factor and low mass, combined with high-performance specifications and scientific grade data quality. With a weight of less than 4.5 kg and less than 50 W power consumption, HySpex Mjolnir S-620 is very well suited for a wide range of UAVs. NEO offers high-performance unmanned aerial vehicles, fully integrated with the HySpex Mjolnir S-620. The UAV is fitted with a standard battery package allowing up to 30 minutes of flight time. All HySpex Mjolnir systems can also be mounted on a tripod and rotation stage for ground use. | Pika IR-L+ 925 - 1700 nm Lightweight, High-Precision Infrared The Pika IR-L+ imager is a high spatial and spectral resolution Near-Infrared (925-1,700 nm) imager in a lightweight, compact format. It is well suited for field research, yet compatible with all imaging platforms (airborne, benchtop, or outdoor). For a compact, lightweight Visible light spectral range option, please see the Pika L. For higher imaging speeds, please see the Pika IR-L. | 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. |
