PCO.Tech pco.pixelfly 1.3 SWIR camera

The pco.pixelfly 1.3 SWIR from PCO.Tech is a machine vision camera with an InGaAs image sensor that is IMX990-sensitive in the shortwave infrared, near infrared and visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum.

The camera is suitable for use in a variety of applications, including waste sorting, smart farming and food processing quality control, pharmaceutical and other product packaging industries.

The camera shows a good high sensitivity in the whole spectral range, with up to 90% in the shortwave infrared part. The small pixels enable the use of small magnification optics in microscopy and a low dark current for even longer exposure times. As a result, it shows high sensitivity across the entire spectral range with more than 90% in shortwave infrared.

Features include VIS & SWIR sensitivity, 400 to 1700 nm, 1280 x 1024 resolution, long exposure times due to low dark current and peak QE of 90%. The camera’s small 5 x 5 µm pixels enable the use of small magnification optics in microscopy. It measures 7 x 7 x 11.5 cm and uses a USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface.
