NIRvana
NIRvana cameras are designed to give unprecedented performance for imaging in the SWIR wavelength range. The versatile scientific InGaAs cameras, deliver both high speed imaging with 100s of fps as well as ultra low dark noise for long exposures of extremely weak signals.
NIRvana Family Features
Large Pixel Size Delivers High Sensitivity
We don’t just have lower noise – we collect more photons too. With larger pixel area comes greater light detection ability. The 20 μm pixels of the NIRvana® family collect 80% more light than 15 μm pixel cameras, and 4 times as much light as 10 μm pixel cameras.
Proven Scientific Performance
With Scientific SWIR Imaging comes unique challenges. Building on two decades of experience, our NIRvana range of cameras is designed to solve them. NIRvana has a peerless scientific pedigree with 10 publications in Nature journals using NIRvana cameras since 2017.
See our Research Stories for an insight into the dozens of publications using our cameras.
The NIRvana range of SWIR cameras provide a superlative performance for low-light imaging that has to be seen to be believed. Why not book a demonstration to see what the NIRvana range can do for you.
Imaging and Spectroscopy in One Powerful Software
Powerful and intuitive software with built-in math engine allows for the complete control of cameras and spectrographs, with real-time image analysis and spectral data.
LightField software provides seamless integration of hardware controls and direct data acquisition into programmes such as Python, National Instruments’ LabVIEW® and MathWorks’ MATLAB®. This software also fully supports IntelliCal automated wavelength and intensity calibration.
Easy Integration with Linux, C++, Python…
Our software support doesn’t end there. Our PICam SDK offers C++ integration and extensive documentation, and is fully supported in Linux.
