FPV drone camera, thermal imaging, 640×512, 12 μm, F1.0 / 9.1 mm

Thermal imaging module of the camera based on the uncooled VOx (vanadium oxide) sensor is designed for integration into drones, surveillance systems, security complexes and industrial solutions. The camera provides high sensitivity and stable operation even in difficult conditions, allowing accurate detection of thermal objects.

Thanks to the resolution of up to 640×512 pixels and a frequency of 50 Hz, the module forms a smooth and detailed thermal image. Built-in processing algorithms improve image quality, reduce noise and increase contrast.

The module supports both analog (CVBS) and digital (UVC) video output, which makes it universal for various systems. Compact dimensions and low power consumption allow the camera to be used in mobile and standalone devices.
