Setting new standards for thermographic accuracy and
precision, the new VarioCAM® HD is the worldwide first
uncooled, handheld thermography camera offering 3.1
Megapixel infrared resolution and featuring a laser
rangefinder for distance correction.
Jenoptik is pushing thermal imaging quality one more step
further towards photorealistic image quality. The new
VarioCAM® HD records radiometric images and images
sequences of 1024 x 768 pixel resolution at a frame rate of
up to 30 Hz. Additionally, Jenoptik's opto-mechanical
Resolution Enhancement (RE) technology boosts the XGA
resolution to a maximum real-time resolution of 3.1
megapixel - which is unique for thermography cameras. In
this effect, Jenoptik continues the success story of the
proven VarioCAM® high resolution, predecessor of the
VarioCAM® HD series.
As a world debut for thermography, VarioCAM® HD features an
eye-safe Jenoptik laser rangefinder for object distance
measurement. The distance information is used for thermal
image correction - thus increasing measurement accuracy -
and also supports the camera's integrated auto-focus
function. A GPS module enables tagging of geo-information
to image data. Additional VIS still-image or video data is
acquired by an integrated 8 Megapixel CMOS camera.
What you see is what you get: VarioCAM® HD features an extra-large and tough 5.6'' TFT display and tiltable LCoS viewfinder for image display and camera control. The bright display with 1280 x 800 pixel resolution is suitable for use under daylight conditions and allows for on-site temperature analysis either in real-time live-view or of recorded thermograms. Despite of its IP54 proof tough industrial quality housing, the camera is handy and allows for easy, ergonomic one-hand operation.
Multiple standard interfaces for best connectionsFor easy and reliable remote camera control and image transfer a variety of industrial standard interfaces are available, including GigE-Vision and wireless interfaces such as WLAN or Bluetooth.
High quality infrared optics for any applicationMatching a broad variety of thermal imaging applications, a great choice of high quality infrared optics is available, ranging from wide angle to telephoto lenses. Designed and manufactured by Jenoptik's Optical Systems division, the lenses are perfectly adapted to the new VarioCAM® HD.
A versatile tool for multiple thermal imaging applicationsTypical applications for the versatile VarioCAM® HD encompass high end industrial and scientific research & development, predictive & preventive maintenance or building inspection.
