Description
Line scan hyperspectral imaging camera FS-14 (400-1700nm)
The FS-14 Line Scan Hyperspectral Imaging Camera is an advanced spectral imaging system designed to capture detailed spectral information across a broad wavelength range of 400–1700 nm, covering both VNIR (Visible-Near Infrared) and SWIR (Short-Wave Infrared) bands. Utilizing push-broom (line-scan) technology, it is ideal for high-precision inspection and analysis of moving or conveyor-based samples in real-time.Built with dual-sensor integration (CMOS for VNIR and InGaAs for SWIR), the FS-14 provides seamless spectral fusion and superior spectral resolution (~5–10 nm), enabling detection of fine material differences not visible with traditional cameras. Its compact form factor makes it suitable for both lab setups and industrial integration, while the rugged build ensures durability in various environments.
The camera features thermoelectric cooling for stable SWIR performance, automated dark/white referencing, and supports high-speed data acquisition via USB 3.0 or Gigabit Ethernet. Accompanied by a powerful software suite and open SDK/API support, it allows users to calibrate, visualize, and analyze hyperspectral data efficiently.Whether in agriculture, food inspection, mining, medical diagnostics, or art conservation, the FS-14 offers unmatched versatility and spectral insight. It delivers spectral cubes (x, y, λ) in standard formats (ENVI, BIL, BSQ), making it ready for immediate integration into existing workflows.
