Specialising
in photo-sensor imaging since 1937, Photonis provides digital cameras
and components for integration into a variety of fields including night-vision
applications, physics research, mass spectronomy and space exploration.
With the belief that better observation leads to better understanding,
Photonis's philosophy of extending the limits of what can be seen in order
is reflected in the qualitiy and sensitivity of their components. Photonis'
solutions are highly specialised and technically innovative, maintaining
industry standards into the future.
NOCTURN range - Digtal Extreme Low-light
CMOS cameras
Offering high-definition resolution, high sensitivity and high dynamic
range with low power consumption, Photonis' NOCTURN range provides real-time
imaging capabilities – daylight to bright starlight - in the visible
and near NIR.
The cameras are powered by a fully solid-state Lynx CMOS imaging sensor,
providing excellent imaging across varying light conditions and optimized
for low light levels. It is the first operational sensor specifically
designed with Night Vision, homeland Security and Surveillance applications
in mind.
Rugged, light-weight and with a small footprint, the NOCTURN range are
suited for surveillance, security, and mobile applications such as border
patrol and reconnaissance UAVs monitoring and its small size makes
it ideal for integration into aerial, mobile and hand-held survellance
systems.
The NOCTURN range is available in a variety of models - all versatile
and all simple.
