Acuros® CQD® SWIR Cameras are designed for high resolution broadband SWIR imaging, and come equipped with single-stage TECs for lower noise operation and greater image stability. Brilliant, high resolution images are delivered with high frame rates, high dynamic range, and a broad range of exposure times.

While InGaAs SWIR cameras are generally constrained to 640×512 or 1280×1024 pixel formats, CQD sensor technology enables 2.1 megapixel, full-HD resolution, the first commercially available SWIR product of its kind. Inherently lower cost CQD sensor processing enables lower costs per megapixel, than comparable InGaAs SWIR Cameras.

Acuros cameras are GenICam compliant, and come with USB3 or GigE Vision interfaces. The cameras are designated EAR-99 requiring no license for export.

Host Interface:

USB3 Vision
GigE Vision

Optical Front End Options:

Standard
Special, for Fringeless Laser Beam imaging

Use your mouse to read QE data at wavelengths of interest.
Right-click and drag to zoom-in along the X-axis to expand the view for a desired range of wavelength.
To pan left or right within a zoomed-in view, hold down the Shift key and use your mouse.
To revert from a zoomed-in view to a normal view, click on the “Reset zoom” button that is displayed at the top-RHS of the graph.

All QE values on this website are the best estimates available from various sources, and not necessarily from the manufacturer of the specific image sensor or from the manufacturer of the cameras in our Product Showcase. They represent the best estimates for the imagers by themselves, with the caveat that glass and other optics in the imaging path can significantly impact the spectral sensitivity of an imaging system.

As described on our Knowledge Base article on this subject, these values exist in a range. Therefore no absolute precision is implied, even when QE values are shown to two decimal places! These values and graphs are intended to be used for reference can be use for making useful comparisons between cameras. They are not intended to be a specification or a performance guarantee.
