The compact MVCam series shortwave infrared (SWIR) and visible camera supports the highest commercially available frame rate at megapixel resolution with no ITAR restrictions. The megapixel indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) camera provides 1280 x 1024 resolution SWIR imagery at up to 95 frames per second, with higher frame rates for user-selectable regions of interest. At 12 µm pixel pitch, the image sensor yields extremely low dark current and high quantum efficiency, providing sensitivity across the SWIR and visible wavelength bands from 0.4 to 1.7 µm. The standard camera configuration uses a single-stage thermoelectric cooler (with no moving parts) integrated in a sealed package to stabilize the image sensor at 20 °C.
