Combining visible-near-infrared (VNIR) and shortwave infrared (SWIR) sensors into one package, the VNIR-SWIR camera from Headwall Photonics can collect wideband hyperspectral data from 400-2500nm using one instrument. The VNIR sensor is a CMOS image sensor that is sensitive in the 400 – 1000 nm range, while featuring a pixel pitch of 7.4 µm and a maximum frame rate of 330 fps. The SWIR sensor is a Stirling-cooled MCT detector that is sensitive in the 900 – 2500 nm range and features a pixel pitch of 15 µm while being able to reach >100 fps. Pixels from each sensor are co-registered through software, making the collected data truly aligned during post-processing. Headwall’s diffraction grating technology enables high spectral and spatial resolution across a wide field of view, and ensure aberration-corrected performance. At .7” x 8.2” x 6.5” and weighs about 6.25 lbs, the VNIR-SWIR camera is light enough for certain high-payload UAVs while providing spectral pixels for the VNIR and 267 for the SWIR.
