MKS Inc., a global provider of enabling technologies that transform the world, has announced at ADEX Seoul the Ophir SupIR 16-80mm f/1.2 lens, the industry's first compact, continuous zoom lens designed specifically for SXGA (1280 × 1024 pixels) uncooled LWIR detectors with 10-12 µm pixels.
By unlocking the full resolution of next-generation LWIR sensors, the SupIR lens enables system integrators to deliver high-performance thermal imagery with reliable detection ranges in a form that is compact enough for small UAVs; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) payloads; and portable surveillance systems.
