Multi Integration Time (MIT)

The MIT function increases the dynamic range up to 16 bit and significantly extends the temperature measurement ranges. Measurement objects with large temperature gradients can be recorded with one measurement range while maintaining the maximum image refresh rate and temperature resolution.

With constant aperture / filter setting, different integration times can be selected for up to four calibration ranges and combined with these to form a total range. The system calibration can remain unchanged. Manual switching of the measurement range becomes dispensable as well.

But MIT is limited to a temperature range defined by the calibrations with the same filter settings. The HDR feature breaks free of these limitations, changing the filters on a frame‐to‐frame basis with up to 350 Hz. Thus, calibration ranges spanning more than 1,000 °C can be realised.

HDR – Simultaneous Mapping of Wide Temperature Ranges

Get further information about HDR

The High Dynamic Range (HDR) function of the Infrared ImageIR® camera series enables measurement scenarios with extremely different temperatures to be recorded continuously. When recording in HDR mode, multiple thermograms with different integration times and different filters are recorded quickly in succession and compiled into an overall image with a high dynamic range. The measuring range can span up to 1,500 K. Users obtain high-contrast images in a wide temperature range characterized by high measurement accuracy.

Separate Filter & Aperture Wheel – Spectral Thermography

Get further information about the separate filter & aperture wheel

The combination of a separate filter and aperture wheel, allowing a total of 35 freely selectable combinations, is prerequisite for a universal application in measurement tasks with high object temperatures and in the field of spectral thermography. The neutral density filters used for signal attenuation or the combination of spectral filters and apertures reliably prevent interference effects.

Further Glossary Items relating to Multi Integration Time

High-speed Mode – Increase Frame Rate and Sensitivity

Further information about High-speed Mode

Due to the binning technology, infrared cameras have two speed modes – the standard mode and the high-speed mode, in which the frame rate increases more than three times. The field of view remains constant in both modes, so the scene captured by the camera does not change. In high-speed mode, the thermal resolution also increases by a factor of two.

HighSense for thermographic camera series ImageIR®

HighSense – Always the Optimal Camera Setting

Further Information about HighSense

Thanks to HighSense, ImageIR® users have the option of setting up individual measuring ranges based on the factory calibration that best suit the respective task. Depending on the measuring task, the required temperature range can be selected and the optimum integration time for this purpose is calculated – or one decides to proceed in reverse order. Thus, the calibration can be retained even in the case of changed integration times.

MicroScan – Quadruple the Image Format

Get further information about MicroScan

Behind the function is a fast-rotating MicroScan wheel, which is integrated into the camera. It ensures that four different individual exposures are taken per wheel revolution, which are offset laterally by half a pixel each. In this way, thermography achieves a new quality due to thermal images providing a quadrupled spatial resolution.

Further information about subwindowing

The thermal imaging camera can be operated in full, half, quarter and sub mode. With the camera control software, it is possible to use the extended subwindowing function. Using click-and-drag, freely definable sections can be set up quickly and conveniently. A defined sub-frame of the detector is picked out to achieve these extremely high refresh rates.
