Light and Compact Thermal Camera Module
The Crius 640 (formerly IrLugX640) VGA thermal camera module boasts a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels with a 12 µm pitch. The high-definition sensor consists of an uncooled microbolometer array developed by Lynred. With its extreme low size of 30 x 30 x 30 mm3, weight <40g and power consumption under 0.9W, the Crius 640 is designed for easy integration into sub-systems. Using standard USB3.0 interface with RAW 16-bit video streaming, the Crius 640 is the perfect plug-and-play solution for embedded systems. Interfacing with your host controller is made easy thanks to a comprehensive SDK providing support for configuration, control and processing (BPR, UC, Image enhancement, AGC).
Two versions are available:
- Without on-board processing: USB3.0 interface outputting RAW 16-bit video streaming without any on-board processing. This plug-and-play solution for embedded systems interfaces with your host controller thanks to a comprehensive SDK providing support for configuration, control and image processing (Bad pixel replacement, non-uniformity correction and shutterless function).
- With on-board processing: CameraLink, HD/3G-SDI, DF40, MIPI CSI-2 outputting ready-to-use images including all the image corrections. Additional functions are available such as global/local AGC, digital zoom up to 4x and overlays.
The Crius 640 thermal camera module comes with a shutterless function and a ‘time to image’ under 6 seconds from power up. For applications requiring it, an optional mechanical shutter is available. The VGA (640 x 480 pixels) format of this HD thermal camera module offers unmatched image quality with an NETD as low as 40 mK.
The Crius 640 is a dual-use (non-ITAR) thermal camera module with a frame rate up to 120 Hz.
