Advanced-Absorber Microbolometer Superstructure: Patented Sensor Technology Revealed

The most significant development in the production of infrared sensors and their ability to affect improvements to SWaP-C requirements comes from the introduction of uncooled focal plane array (FPA) designs. The progress of uncooled infrared sensor development has paved the way for a host of applications spanning multiple industries, to include commercial and civilian. Through years of persistent development efforts against rigorous quality standards, Leonardo DRS’ patented Advanced-Absorber Microbolometer Superstructure offers equilibrium between SWaP-C advancement and maintaining the integrity of a sensor’s imaging capability.
