Longwave and Midwave Infrared Cameras
Embedded Files
Cascadia Infrared’s family of continuous zoom cooled midwave infrared cameras provide exceptional MWIR imaging with minimal use of germanium in the lens elements. Decades of optics design experience are ushering in a revolution in the optics industry, resulting in cooled MWIR zoom cameras that deliver traditional MWIR performance and sensitivity but with the benefits of lower pricing and, most importantly, price and lead-time stability.
Designed for low SWAP airborne and mobile ground applications, the products include two continuous zoom configurations. All models feature HOT MWIR sensors with long-life coolers and come with two year full system warranty that guaranties long term performance.
