Neutrino LC

Low-cost, low-SWaP cooled MWIR performance.

A compact cooled mid-wave core that brings high-sensitivity MWIR imaging into size, weight, and power budgets that previously demanded uncooled compromises.

Band
MWIR 3.4–5.1 µm
Resolution
640 × 512
Pixel pitch
15 µm
Sensitivity (NEdT)
≤30 mK, 25 mK typ.

Overview

The Neutrino LC delivers cooled mid-wave infrared performance in a package engineered for tight SWaP envelopes. For programs that need the atmospheric reach and sensitivity of a cooled detector, but can't carry a full-size gimballed payload, the LC is the entry point.

Built on a long-life linear cooler and a high-operability HOT focal plane, it's a natural building block for handheld optics, light UAS payloads, and OEM integrations supplying their own lens.

Key Features

  • Cooled HOT mid-wave detector
  • Optimized for low size, weight & power
  • Long-life linear cryocooler
