Bodkin Design Selected US Distributor for SILIOS Technologies COLOR SHADES® Multispectral Cameras
Bodkin Design has added the SILIOS line of multispectral cameras to their extensive line of snapshot hyperspectral imagers. These small, lightweight, off-the-shelf cameras will expand Bodkin Design's offerings into a wide spectrum of applications from agriculture to cosmetics.
NEWTON, Mass., Dec. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Adding to their extensive line of snapshot, staring hyperspectral imagers, Bodkin Design & Engineering (BD&E) is very excited to announce the agreement with SILIOS to offer their line of CMS Multispectral Cameras.
SILIOS Technologies, headquartered in Peynier, France manufactures their off-the-shelf cameras using proprietary COLOR SHADES® multispectral technology. The cameras, capable of 95 data-cubes per second, are delivered in snapshot configuration. Available in 3 specific VIS/NIR wavelength ranges, they address a wide spectrum of applications from agriculture to cosmetics.
These lightweight (less than 60g) and very small footprint (52x52x22mm) cameras split the image into 8 spectral bands plus 1 B&W channel. Made by hybridization of a custom Bayer-like filter matrix on a commercial 4.2MPixel CMOS Sensor, they extract a spectrum on each point of an image. SILIOS offers three CMS cameras: CMS-C (430-700nm), CMS-V (550-830nm) and CMS-S (650-930nm).
The CMS-C camera (430-700nm) is COLOR-dedicated: optimized for color measurements, color process control, waste sorting and characterization of produce. The CMS-V camera (550-830nm) is VEGETATION-dedicated for environmental and agriculture monitoring, fertilization & irrigation optimization and vegetation index measurements. The CMS-S camera (650-930nm) is DEFENSE-dedicated for intrusion detection, forensics, rescue & other defense applications.
The SILIOS multispectral cameras augment BD&E's full line of high resolution, video-rate, snapshot hyperspectral imagers. BD&E's patented HyperPixel Array™ technology allows the instantaneous capture of data-cubes, enabling the collection of high-fidelity spectral data and eliminating the motion artifacts plaguing conventional scanned hyperspectral imagers. It finds application in the areas of machine vision, medicine, research, precision farming, defense and security.
