AHS-001MIR
Hyperspectral Camera
The AHS-001MIR is a shortwave hyperspectral camera equipped with an InGaAs sensor from Hamamatsu Photonics.
It disperses wavelengths from 1300nm to 2150nm using 320 pixels, providing spectral information across 256 bands.
Because it simultaneously acquires one-dimensional spatial data (XY coordinates) and spectral axis data (hyperspectral information), it enables component analysis and identification of target objects (based on the variation in light absorption specific to each material).
It allows non-destructive, non-contact analysis or inspection of objects that are not visible with only visible light.
Additionally, the AHS-001MIR is equipped with a Peltier device (cooling function) on the sensor, making it resistant to temperature fluctuations and capable of capturing stable images even in inline environments such as factories.

The combination of different wavelengths (bands) of light forms a spectral spectrum. A camera capable of capturing images in multiple bands is referred to as a “spectral camera.” For example, a typical color camera refers to the three wavelengths (bands) of RGB.
A hyperspectral camera, on the other hand, can capture multiple wavebands. It can simultaneously acquire 1-dimensional spatial information along the XY coordinates and data along the wavelength axis (hyperspectral data), enabling the analysis and identification of the composition of the target. The AHS-001MIR spectrally captures wavelengths from 1300nm to 2150nm with a 320-pixel line to obtain hyperspectral data across 256 bands.

The AHS-001MIR allows capturing images spectrally separated into 256 bands.
Captured images can be displayed using the hyperspectral-specific viewer, HySight. It is possible to view images for each wavelength, interpret spectral data, and colorize them with pseudo-color.
