Cheetah-640: High Quality, high flexibility |
|
The Cheetah-640 near infrared camera is the fastest infrared camera in the world. This unit is equipped with a dedicated high-speed InGaAs detector array working up to 1.7µm and comes in a 400 and 1700 Hz speed version. It allows you to visualize the ultra high-speed features of your specific research application. The camera records images into 16 GB of internal memory, which allows for up to 8 seconds of recording at full speed. Interfacing with the PC is done via GigE or CameraLink. The Cheetah-640 is delivered with a graphical user interface Xeneth, which offers direct access to various camera settings. The software tool also features two-point uniformity correction and bad pixel replacement. |
