The Telops FAST V1K LWIR camera marks a major breakthrough in high-speed thermal imaging technology. This amazing system pairs exceptional frame rates with outstanding thermal sensitivity. Scientists and researchers in many fields now consider it their go-to tool. The camera stands out from regular thermal imaging systems by capturing full-frame images at 1012 Hz while keeping the full 640 x 512 resolution that operates in the 7.5 to 11.5 micrometer spectral range.

One of the camera's most impressive features is its ability to reach subwindow frame rates up to 40,000 Hz. It also has ultrashort exposure times as quick as 0.27 microseconds. These features let you capture super-fast thermal events that normal cameras would miss completely. The advanced SLS detector technology makes everything work better with improved uniformity, stability, and temperature range coverage. You won't need multiple integration times either.

The camera comes with special features like Automatic Exposure Control (AEC) that make it really easy to use during dynamic testing. You can focus on your experiments because the camera adjusts itself automatically. The HDR imaging support helps you see clearly across extreme temperature differences that would be too much for basic systems.

Scientists working in the field will love how tough this camera is. It comes in an IP67-rated case and works in a wide range of temperatures. The camera meets IEC-60068 standards for shock and vibration resistance, so it works reliably even in rough conditions.

The camera's 30 mK thermal sensitivity and ±1°C or ±1% radiometric accuracy give you data you can count on for serious scientific work. A huge data throughput of more than 1 Gigapixel per second backs up all these features. You won't lose any important thermal information during high-speed captures.

The FAST V1K gives you an unbeatable mix of speed, sensitivity, and toughness for demanding thermal imaging work. While it's built for scientific research, this camera helps you learn about many different fields like ballistics, combustion analysis, and experimental mechanics. If you want to capture and study rapid thermal events, the Telops FAST V1K LWIR will be a crucial part of your scientific toolkit.

Key Features That Set the FAST V1K Apart

  • 7.5–11.5 µm with SLS Detector

    • The camera uses innovative Type II Strained Layer Superlattice (SLS) detector technology that takes thermal imaging to new heights. SLS technology improves speed, temperature range, uniformity, and stability compared to traditional detector materials.

  • Interchangeable Lens System

      • Standard lenses for general-purpose imaging
      • Wide-angle lenses for capturing larger areas or confined spaces
      • Telephoto lenses for detailed imaging of distant objects
      • Microscope lenses 1x to 4x magnification
  • Full Frame Rate: 1012 Hz at 640 x 512

    • The FAST V1K hits an incredible full-frame rate of 1012 Hz and keeps its complete 640 x 512 pixel resolution
  • Seamless Software Integration

    • The FAST V1K seamlessly integrates with Telops’ RevealIR software, providing a comprehensive platform for camera control, data acquisition, processing, and analysis
