This new long-wave infrared (LWIR) SWaP core camera marks a significant milestone in the group's ongoing commitment to delivering high-performance, compact imaging solutions for demanding applications.
DIONE XP – A New Benchmark in LWIR Imaging
The Dione XP series is a VGA (640 × 480) LWIR camera core specifically developed to meet the increasing demand for Size, Weight, Power, and Cost-efficiency (SWaP-C) without compromising performance.

These features deliver exceptional image quality and dynamic range, tailored for critical industrial and defense use cases.
Equipped with a 640 × 480 microbolometer sensor and 12 µm pixel pitch, the camera achieves NETD values of 35 mK or 40 mK, depending on the model. Available with or without a shutter, the series offers maximum design flexibility to meet various SWaP requirements.
