Megapixel GAVIN1212 Cooled Camera Core
Long Range Detection 1280x1024 / 12μm MWIR MCT Cooled Camera Module
with 37.5~750mm Zoom Lens
Product Description
GAVIN1212 high resolution thermal camera module integrates large
array 1280x1024/12μm cooled MWIR detector. Various image processing
algorithms are embedded in the GAVIN1212 electronics to output
clear infrared images in the total darkness or bad weather
conditions. It can detect and recognize risks and threats at long
distance while present more target details at short distance.
With large array 1280x1024 resolution it can realize wider field of
view and provide more image details. The reduced 12µm pixel size
offer better spatial resolution and match shorter optical lens
focus to achieve the same range mission. It is ideal choice for the
EO-IR systems integrator to design their payload for air-borne or
ship-borne applications.

FAQs
1. What is the difference between uncooled and cooled IR detectors?
There are currently two types of infrared thermal imaging sensors
on the market, cooled and uncooled.
Uncooled IR detector operates at ambient temperature. It is based
on semi-conductor industry and thus usually can be fabricated in
big volume with small size and low cost. Uncooled IR detectors are
widely used in portable/handheld/mobile devices.
Cooled IR detectors are packaged in a unit that keeps them at an
extremely low temperature which shall be supported by a cryo
cooler. They are much bigger, more expensive and less reliable than
uncooled sensors, mainly due to the complex cooling systems they
require. However, the cooled systems are incredibly sensitive and
usually work with long focal length optics to achieve long range
mission.
2. What are the advantages of cooled infrared detectors?
The cooled infrared focal plane detector operates at a low
temperature which is provided by a detector dewar cooler (ddc). It
has high sensitivity and can distinguish more subtle temperature
difference than uncooled infrared detector. It can detect, identify
and recognize objects at a very long range which is more than ten
kilometers away. The structure of cooled detector is very complex
which results in a relatively high cost than uncooled detector.
