SWIR (short-wave infrared) cameras are indispensable for industrial image processing. They recognise invisible defects, moisture and chemical differences. In combination with AI, they can automatically detect defects and analyse patterns in real time. This increases efficiency, reduces manual intervention and optimises production processes. SWIR cameras are used in semiconductor production, electronics and the food industry, as they can see through plastic and glass and drive automation forward.
iam – AI-based smart camera with Sony SWIR sensors
The iam SWIR-smart-cameras, equipped with Sony’s IMX990 and IMX991 SenSWIR InGaAs sensors, offer high image quality and fast frame rates in a compact housing. The combination of CPU and FPGA on one chip maximises system performance, while hardware acceleration in the system-on-chip design enables efficient use of neural networks and algorithms for image processing. This makes the iam suitable for various industries such as food & beverage, pharmaceutical inspection, agriculture and many more.
