Research abstract
The Agiltron lilliputian thermal camera implements a revolutionary approach to thermal imaging. Based on our company’s proven photomechanical IR imaging technology, we separate the IR focal plane array (FPA) from the readout integrated circuitry (ROIC), which allows ubiquitous yet highly-functional CMOS imagers to serve as the ROIC. The disruptive, modular design of the Agiltron lilliputian thermal camera can uniquely meet the DARPA requirements for ultra-low size, weight, and power (SWAP) and wide field of view (FOV). The successful completion of this program will result in the smallest, lightest, and most efficient thermal camera ever demonstrated.
