Description
Ultra-Compact Thermal Imaging for SWaP Applications
The MicroCube Thermal Camera from Exosens sets a new benchmark for compact, high-performance thermal imaging in European-made, ITAR-free designs. Measuring just 22×22 mm, this camera core combines ultra-low weight and power consumption with VGA resolution (640×480) and 12 µm pixel pitch, offering exceptional thermal sensitivity with NETD below 50 mK (<40 mK on request). Its shutterless design ensures near-instant startup, enabling rapid deployment for defense, industrial, and research applications.
MicroCube XP Series – Extreme Sensitivity
The MicroCube XP 640 series pushes performance further with NETD <20 mK, denoising technology, and contour enhancement for superior contrast and target visibility. The XP series features ultra-fast startup (<0.7 s), SWaP-optimized operation, and a built-in contour sharpness score for precise autofocus management. With robust MIL-STD-810G vibration compliance, this series is highly reliable in harsh operational environments.
Flexible Integration and Wide Applications
MicroCube cameras provide flexible digital output options including MIPI-CSI, DF40, and UVC, making integration into UAVs, UGVs, handheld devices, and embedded platforms seamless. Their low power consumption (<1.2 W) and compact design make them ideal for battery-powered systems where space and efficiency are critical.
Applications span defense and surveillance, law enforcement, armored vehicles, border monitoring, maritime operations, search and rescue, life sciences, industrial inspection, firefighting, and gas detection.
