LVDS-HDMI Thermal Camera
Introduction
With support for LVDS video input and HDMI and Ethernet video output, the thermal camera combines Sony video streams with thermal imaging, creating a picture-in-picture display that can be easily toggled with one-click control.
Moreover, the camera integrates target tracking module which is an essential function required by clients for observing, locating and tracking targets of unmanned aerial vehicles.
Features
No shutter non-uniformity correction technique
The absence of a shutter ensures consistent imaging performance, particularly when tracking, as no frames are missed. This provides a significant advantage over other IR cores.
Target tracking
Target tracking is the key feature that sets our IR core apart from others. By integrating the tracking boards directly into the thermal core housing, we simplify the connections between modules, significantly enhancing stability.
Support for internal and external dual-video mode ( Picture in Picture )
External video sources typically refer to EO sensors such as the Sony EV 7520 series or Tamron cameras. The EO+IR switchable PIP display allows users to view the same image spot across two different wavebands, eliminating the need for separate sensors or even dual gimbal cameras for certain tasks, thus saving both cost and complexity. With more gimbal manufacturers developing dual-light solutions, our IR core is an ideal match for these applications.
Temperature measurement ( Optional )
Temperature measurement is a key feature of thermal sensors, as the strength of IR radiation emitted by an object is directly related to its heat. Even different parts of the same object can emit varying levels of IR radiation, allowing for precise temperature readings across the entire surface.
High image quality, strong scene adaptability
Our Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) algorithm enables the IR core to automatically adapt when observing objects across a broad temperature spectrum, ensuring that fine details are captured even in challenging conditions.
Multi-communication interface, easy for secondary development
The IR core series supports a wide range of video and communication interfaces, including video inputs such as LVDS, HDMI micro, and AV, as well as outputs like LVDS, HDMI micro, SDI, and Ethernet. For communication, it supports TTL and RS232 interfaces.
