Shortwave infrared sensor for machine vision

Eyesential SW, from Lynred, provides sensitivity, low noise and ease-of-use for machine vision, scientific imaging and spectroscopy. It is  a 640 x 512, 10µm pitch shortwave infrared (SWIR) imaging sensor. It is designed to offer cost-performance ratio for visible-like imaging to address specific performance needs in machine vision. Featuring a high-frame rate (300Hz full frame/1200…


Eyesential SW, from Lynred, provides sensitivity, low noise and ease-of-use for machine vision, scientific imaging and spectroscopy. It is  a 640 x 512, 10µm pitch shortwave infrared (SWIR) imaging sensor. It is designed to offer cost-performance ratio for visible-like imaging to address specific performance needs in machine vision.

Featuring a high-frame rate (300Hz full frame/1200 Hz ¼ full frame), Eyesential SW is suited to the automation and data exchange trends in industry 4.0 manufacturing, which require enhanced detection capabilities and improved real-time detection on production lines.

Through Eyesential SW, a 640×512, 10 µm pitch, SWIR (0.9-1.7µm) sensor with 14-bit digital output and COTS (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf) packaging, Lynred aims to bolster Europe’s supply chain in SWIR sensors as well as strengthen its global offering in the machine vision market. This new sensor complements Lynred’s SWIR product portfolio, which includes Snake SW (640 x 512/15µm), dedicated to high-end machine vision applications, and its recently acquired NIT SWIR modules.
