LightPath Technologies Introduces New 15mK Uncooled High-Sensitivity Thermal Camera

ORLANDO, FL / ACCESSWIRE / April 22, 2024 / LightPath Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:LPTH) ("LightPath," the "Company," or "we"), a leading vertically integrated global manufacturer and integrator of proprietary optical and infrared technologies, announces today, availability of a new, uncooled HS LWIR thermal camera with a record low noise level of 15mK. The integration of LightPath Optical Technology and Visimid's, a wholly owned subsidiary of LightPath, advanced electronics package positions this camera as best-in-class to existing uncooled thermal cameras.

Unlike typical uncooled thermal cameras that have NETD (Noise Equivalent Thermal Difference) in the range of 30mK to 80mK, LightPath's new High-Sensitivity (HS) long wave thermal camera exhibits an NETD level better than 15mK NETD. This denotes the inherent noise level of the camera that directly affects the quality of imaging capabilities with uncooled camera technology. With an NETD of 15mK or less, LightPath's new HS camera exhibits sensitivity in long wave infrared (LWIR) that often is only available with cryogenically cooled long wave cameras. It accomplishes this at a significantly lower cost, form factor and power consumption, ensuring you get the best value for your investment.

The compact, low-noise, HS camera is a game-changer. It opens up a world of possibilities for applications that require extreme sensitivity, a small form factor, low power consumption, and scale. From drone detection (C-UAS) to gas detection, long-range imaging, and many more, this camera is ready to revolutionize industries.

This breakthrough technology allows our integrator partners to economically integrate thermal imaging into a wide variety of applications where typically a cryogenically cooled camera was needed to meet the application's requirements leaving the application underserved in scale due to economics, size, and price.

The camera is available with a selection of F1.0 high-efficiency optical lens assemblies from LightPath.
