Advanced SWIR Lenses and Optics
Higher-Resolution
SWIR Imaging Features:
- Higher Speeds (F-number as low as F/1)
- Broader Spectrum
- Lowest Flare
on the Market
- 20-40% Lighter Weight
- Robust Mechanical Design
with Stable Performance Over Temperature
The INSPIRE™ line of pre-engineered SWIR lenses from Clear Align are high-performance, light-weight and ruggedized to withstand harsh environments with superior flare control. Our proprietary Extra-Black™ coating coupled with a unique FEATHERWEIGHT™ housing provides three key advantages including control of flare or stray light, better performance over a wide temperature range, and 20-40% weight reduction. The INSPIRE™ product line provides exceptionally high resolution infrared imaging used for solar cell and manufacturing inspection, perimeter security, medical imaging and other applications. Also available are a series of advance SWIR zoom lenses. INSPIRE™ lenses are optimized for leading large-format SWIR cameras including FLIR, Goodrich (Sensors Unlimited), Raytheon and others.
