  1. Live From DSS 2011: New Mil-Rugged InGaAs SWIR Camera Introduced 4/29/2011

    In this video, Photonics Online gets introduced to the new GA-1280J-15A InGaAs SWIR digital video camera by Martin Ettenberg, Ph.D., director of business development for Goodrich ISR Systems. Launched at SPIE DSS2011, the GA-1280J-15A is 1280 x 1024 pixel, 15 um pitch, 60 Hz shortwave infrared camera.

  2. Shape Sensing Technology / 3D Shape Sensing Demonstration Video 3/11/2010

    Luna's shape sensing optical fiber knows its own position in 3D space at every discrete point along its length and can be used to track the exact position of an object to which it is attached.

  3. Toshiba Space Chair Project 3/1/2010
    Toshiba ad campaign features extraordinary, world-record-breaking high-def footage of a living room chair tied to a simple helium balloon and carried to the edge of space.
  4. Video: Toshiba Chair in Space 2/12/2010
    Toshiba’s Tiny HD Cameras capture aviation imagery on-board aircraft and in-flight. This video includes a 60 second commercial and the Toshiba “ Making of Chair in Space” Documentary.
  5. SWIR Video Scanning of Solar Cell Panel 7/23/2009

    SWIR video scanning over the length of a commercial 36 cell panel while forward biased with 18 V.The SWIR camera sweeps across a panel composed of 3 rows of 12 cells, with the panel nominally rated as 18 V output.

  6. Video: Photovoltaics - Solar Cell EL Inspection At 60fps 7/23/2009

    This video shows a movie of a small solar cell section being driven to luminance by a square wave pulse from a function generator running at 1 Hz.

  7. Video: Visible Camera Imaging: The San Francisco Bay 10/23/2008

    This visible camera movie was taken of the San Francisco Bay Bridge in July 2008, and you can hardly see the bridge, let alone the car traffic on the bridge.

  8. Video: SWIR Camera Imaging: The San Francisco Bay 10/23/2008

    Movie taken by a SWIR camera (Goodrich model SU640KTSX), which responds in the 0.9 to 1.7 micron wavelength range. Longer wavelengths penetrate the haze, providing clear detail of the ship traffic, buildings, and vegetation on the hills behind the San Francisco Bay Bridge.

  9. Video: Visible vs. SWIR Camera Imaging 10/23/2008

    This aerial video alternates between visible footage to shortwave infrared, both imaging the same forest fire scene. Note how the SWIR imager, captured with Sensors Unlimited's SU640KTSX camera, clearly shows the location of the flames, which the smoke hides from the visible camera.

  10. Video: SWIR Retinal Scan 7/24/2008

    The OCT video shows a high-speed, high-resolution, flythrough of a wide angle fundus area. The video images were captured using Sensors Unlimited’s SU-LDH SWIR linescan camera.
