Medium-wave infrared sensor for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance introduced by Teledyne FLIR

April 12, 2022
Has dual-parallel outputs with 60 Hz Camera Link with 1080P30 or 720P60 HD-SDI for tracking, turbulence mitigation, and artificial intelligence (AI).

WILSONVILLE, Ore. – The Teledyne FLIR segment of Teledyne Technologies Inc. in Wilsonville, Ore., is introducing the Neutrino SX12 ISR1200 high-performance medium-wave infrared (MWIR) camera modules with integrated CZ optics for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications.

The HD MWIR system combines a Teledyne FLIR MWIR camera module and 120-to-1,200-millimeter CZ optics with imaging electronics from InVeo Designs LLC in Louisville, Ky., to provide ISR with low-switching-cost for defense and industrial integrators.

Based on Teledyne FLIR focal plane array (FPA) technology, near diffraction-limited optics, and a long-life linear Stirling cooler with 25,000-hour mean time between failures, the Neutrino SX12 ISR1200 offers 1280-by-1024-pixel resolution with 12-micron pixel size.

It also features dual-parallel outputs using a 60 Hz Camera Link base with 1080P30 HD-SDI or 720P60 HD-SDI for tracking, turbulence mitigation, and artificial intelligence (AI).

The SX12 ISR1200 is a turnkey system for integration with ground-based, long-range ISR, perimeter surveillance, border surveillance, and counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS).

The long-focal-length CZ lens is from the former New England Optical Systems (NEOS), which joined FLIR in 2019. The system provides autofocus, focus, and boresight retention through zoom, and it is factory optimized for each integrated system. The lens, the MWIR camera module, and imaging electronics are designed and manufactured in the U.S.
