PHOTONIS Technologies SAS KAMELEON CMOS Color Imaging Sensor

The Kameleon CMOS color imaging sensor is the first operational sensor specifically designed with Night Vision, Homeland Security, Surveillance and Scientific applications in mind. High sensitivity day-through-night Low power consumption Award-winning low light technology Optimized for SWaP Description The Kameleon CMOS color imaging sensor is the first operational sensor specifically designed with Night Vision, Homeland Security, Surveillance and Scientific applications in mind. This solid-state CMOS sensor provides excellent color imaging across varying light conditions, from daylight to low-light levels - such as those found during a quarter-moon. The Kameleon CMOS pixel architecture offers the best compromise between inherent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), high resolution and intrascene dynamic range. With total read-out noise below 4 e- without cooling, the KAMELEON CMOS sensor outperforms all low light imaging sensors down to 4 mlx while still supporting frame rates up to 100 fps at a full SXGA (1280 x 1024) resolution. The Kameleon CMOS color sensor provides a single-solution technology for day through night imaging without additional illumination. The user can opt for color images in extreme low light conditions (~100 mlx) or utilize the sensor’s default monochrome image.
