Subwindowing

Window Mode of ImageIR® – Up to 105,000 Hz

The ImageIR® 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. Subwindow image frequencies of up to 105,000 Hz can thus be achieved.

Over­view of Bene­fits of High-Speed-Ther­mo­graphy with ImageIR®

  • High-speed measurement up to 105,000 Hz

  • Snapshot detectors and complementary components provide for highest measurement speed

  • Fully radiometric real-time sequences with up to 16 bit data depth

  • Capture of extremely rapid temperature and motion sequences

  • High-speed capture of radiometric thermal images on Notebook/PC via 10 GigE interface

High-speed Meas­ure­ment with Vari­oCAM® High Defin­i­tion

The infrared camera VarioCAM® High Definition enables the usage of the sub-frame mode (sub-windowing) for rapid temperature changes. This means thermographic sequences with refresh rates of up to 240 Hz can be created with the camera series VarioCAM® HD. A defined sub-frame of the detector is picked out to achieve these extremely high refresh rates.

Besides the storage of thermographic sequences via GigE interface with the thermography software IRBIS® 3 online, there is the option to save fully radiometric sequences with 16 bit data depth directly in the camera memory, to analyse there or transmit to the software IRBIS® 3. No measurement information is lost with high-speed online measurement. Data can be analysed in detail and subsequently processes.

HighSense for thermographic camera series ImageIR®

High­Sense Function

Guaranteed Flexibility and Measurement Accuracy

Due to this innovative feature, the cameras' measurement accuracy remains unchanged even when integration times or measurement ranges are altered. This will save users both time and money.

HDR Function

Display of Large Temperature Ranges Simultaneously

The HDR function enables thermograms with different integration times and filters to be created in quick succession and combined into a single image with large temperature differences.

MicroScan feature ImageIR

Micro­Scan – Quad­ruple the Image Format

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.
