Nightfall-HR Camera

The new 5G Nightfall-HR camera from Photonic Science provides an ideal solution for 24-hour imaging in all conditions, from starlight to full daylight.

The camera uses a state-of-the-art back illuminated sCMOS sensor with 0.5 electron readout noise. Unprecedented low light imaging, rivaling that of intensified solutions, is achieved through the coupling of thermoelectric cooling and Photonic Science’s powerful image processing. The 9.4 megapixel format provides the high resolution required for long distance surveillance, with capabilities to digitally zoom into features of interest.

The standard 5 Gigabit Ethernet Vision compliant interface enables easy integration into existing systems.

OEM versions are available with special form factors, cooling options, and choice of interfaces, ideal for ease of integration into user specific payload and surveillance systems.
