M700 HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE INFRARED CAMERA
The HDR M700 represents a revolution in high dynamic range infrared imaging. Traditional midwave infrared cameras can effectively measure a span of about 150 degrees with a single exposure time before experiencing image saturation. Telops HDR M700 utilizes an advanced on-chip saturation management solution to extend the single-exposure time dynamic range to a span of over 900 degrees enabling analysis of scenes and objects exhibiting strong thermal contrast.
HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE
24-bit architecture and advanced on-ship saturation management solution enable measurement of extremely wide temperature ranges in a single snapshot image. Traditional MW thermal cameras can typically measure a range of about 100-150 degrees in a single image using a single exposure time. The advanced design of the HDR M700 allows for a measurement range of approximately 900 degrees in a single exposure time snapshot, allowing for efficient and quantitative imaging of hot and cold objects simultaneously
TELOPS RTTC
Unique proprietary real-time processing of infrared images including NUC, radiometric temperature, inband radiance, and in-band irradiance. Blackbody-free calibration allows for full freedom over important image parameters including exposure time and window size without impacting radiometric accuracy. This advanced calibration protocol benefits users through increased ease of use and operational flexibility while maintaining radiometric performance and image quality througout the entire camera operating range.
