Allied Vision break new ground with tiny Alvium SWIR cameras

The new Alvium SWIR camera series from Allied Vision feature the Sony InGaAs sensors (400-1700nm) and are available with a USB3 or CSI-2 interface. The Alvium 1800 U SWIR features a USB3 output and the Alvium 1800 C SWIR features a CSI-2 output. This compact series of cameras boasts the worlds smallest footprint for a camera of this type.

Alvium 1800 U/C-030 features the Sony IMX991 sensor with VGA (656 × 520) resolution and the Alvium 1800 U/C-130 with Sony IMX990 offers SXGA (1296 × 1032)resolution.

With their small size, light weight and low power consumption plus low cost (SWaP+C), the Alvium 1800 SWIR cameras are the ideal solution for compact OEM systems used in embedded and machine vision applications.
