Bobcat 640
The Bobcat 640 series is based on an in-house developed, temperature stabilized InGaAs detector with a 640 x 512 pixel resolution. The Bobcat 640 cameras are offered with high frame rate of 100 Hz. The camera comes with a CameraLink or GigE Vision interface and features low weight and power. We offer a visible enhanced short-wave infrared (vSWIR) option for extended wavelength response into the visible band. The cameras have standard on-board image correction featuring non-uniformity correction (NUC), bad pixel replacement (BPR) and automatic gain control (AGC).
