The module utilizes a 640 x 512 thermal resolution sensor with 12-micron pixels, achieving a noise equivalent temperature difference of 40 mK. This high sensitivity allows for precise thermal observation, while support for 30 or 60 Hz frame rates ensures the camera can effectively track dynamic movements in industrial settings.
Leopard Imaging Debuts Compact DragonFire Thermal Module
Fremont-based Leopard Imaging has launched the LI-DragonFire-VGA-GM2B, an uncooled infrared camera module engineered for industrial thermal diagnostics. Weighing just 58 grams and consuming under one watt, the device aims to bring high-resolution, real-time heat sensing to space-constrained embedded systems and autonomous robotics platforms.
DragonFire manages temperature readings across two distinct profiles: a high-precision range from -20°C to +160°C and a broader industrial range spanning 50°C to +600°C. Data transmission is handled by an integrated ADI MAX96717 GMSL2 serializer, which facilitates high-bandwidth connectivity over coaxial cabling. By prioritizing a low power footprint, the hardware is positioned for deployment in night vision, heat signature detection, and automated industrial inspection where standard visible-light sensors often fail.
