Jade SWIR Thermal IR Camera

The Jade SWIR Thermal IR Camera is an airborne thermal infrared (IR) camera developed by Cedip Infrared Systems. It operates across the shortwave infrared (SWIR) wavelength range (0.8-2.5 μm) to collect infrared imagery. It operates up to 200 frames per second at full image size (320 x 256). The Jade camera is typically used for thermal analysis, IR radiometry, and topographic research.
