GH-SW033-GigE & GH-SW130-GigE Vis-SWIR Camera

Strong ability to penetrate fog
The real-time video fog removal technology can accurately remove the corresponding degree of fog according to different depths of field. The traditional image enhancement method may have a better effect of fog penetration in the near field, but there is still a lot of hazy fog in the distant field. The fog-penetration effect based on the image restoration method is related to the accuracy of the selected components.

Good permeability
The image processed by the real-time video defogging technology is very transparent and has better contrast. However, other methods have residual fog due to inaccurate estimation of the depth of field, so that the image after the fog is not very transparent.

The SWIR camera lens has a high degree of preservation of technical details through fog
The real-time video fog removal technology includes special processing to understand the details, so the image after fog removal can continue to retain or even partially enhance the detail information originally hidden behind the fog, which is also difficult to achieve by other methods.

The color saturation is high and the restoration ability is strong
The real-time video defogging technology does not change the hue of the image but only increases its color saturation. Other defogging methods may have the problem of tonal distortion.

It will not cause the image to be dark
The SWIR camera's real-time video defogging technology does not appear dark in the resulting image due to its inclusion of brightness enhancement performance. Other methods may cause problems with reduced contrast.

Wide range of applications
Real-time video fog removal technology can also be used to process correct images, improve the contrast and saturation of the original image, and improve the transparency of the image. The SWIR camera lens plays a role in improving the visual quality of the image.

Crop health monitoring
SWIR cameras act like health checkers for crops, detecting early signs of stress, disease, and nutrient shortages. By capturing spectral information beyond visible light, these cameras offer farmers invaluable insights to develop crop management practices and substantially capitalise on yields.

Soil composition analysis
With SWIR imaging, farmers can analyse the soil's makeup to better understand soil composition, moisture levels, and nutrient distribution to tailor specific crop needs. This agriculture technique allows farmers to make informed decisions regarding irrigation, fertilisation, and soil management, enhancing overall agricultural productivity.

Water stress detection
SWIR cameras can pinpoint areas where crops are thirsty and identify water stress patterns, allowing for targeted irrigation strategies that conserve water resources and mitigate environmental impact. Farmers can implement localised solutions to optimise water utilisation and promote crop resilience in drought-prone regions by determining water scarcity or inefficient usage.

Identifying nutrition deficiencies
By highlighting where crops lack essential nutrients, SWIR cameras can guide farmers to implement precise fertilisation regimes that address specific deficiencies and improve nutrient uptake. This targeted approach reduces fertiliser wastage, reduces environmental pollution, and improves overall crop quality and yield.

Precision agriculture practices
With SWIR cameras, farmers can fine-tune their farming techniques using real-time insights into crop health, soil conditions, and environmental factors. By integrating SWIR data with advanced analytics and precision farming technologies, farmers can apply management strategies that boost supply allocation, minimise inputs, and increase returns.

Early warning systems
By continuously monitoring at-risk areas from space, SWIR sensors can detect early indicators of impending natural disasters, such as floods, wildfires, landslides, and volcanic eruptions. This early detection enables authorities to issue timely warnings, evacuate vulnerable populations, and implement measures to minimise the impact of potential disasters.

Disaster impact assessment
Following a disaster event, SWIR remote sensing data provides critical information for assessing the extent and severity of damage to affected areas. Using high-resolution imagery, SWIR sensors can assess damage and identify destruction areas, infrastructure damage, and population displacement. This information helps emergency responders prioritise response efforts, allocate resources effectively, and coordinate rescue and relief operations.

Search and rescue operations
SWIR technology helps search and rescue teams locate survivors in disaster-affected areas. Potential survivors trapped in collapsed buildings, stranded in remote locations, or lost at sea can be detected from space using thermal signatures and human activity patterns. This real-time information guides search and rescue efforts, optimising the deployment of rescue teams, aerial assets, and medical supplies to maximise the chances of survival.

Environmental monitoring
SWIR remote sensing is instrumental in monitoring environmental changes triggered by disasters, such as oil spills, chemical leaks, or ecosystem degradation. Following a disaster event, multispectral imagery can show changes in water quality, vegetation health, and land fluctuations. This environmental monitoring aids the long-term resilience and sustainability of affected ecosystems.

Assessing infrastructure damage
By analysing high-resolution SWIR imagery, authorities can assess structural integrity, identify potential hazards, and prioritise repairs and reconstruction efforts for buildings, roads, bridges, and critical lifeline structures. This assessment helps restore essential services, ensures public safety, and expedites the recovery and rebuilding process.

Space exploration
SWIR technology is indispensable for astronomers and astrophysicists studying the cosmos, enabling the observation and analysis of celestial objects, phenomena, and events beyond the visible spectrum. Whether deployed aboard space telescopes, observatories, or planetary probes, SWIR cameras capture high-resolution images and data, shedding light on the origins, evolution, and dynamics of stars, galaxies, and the universe.

Distant galaxy imaging
SWIR cameras are like cosmic photographers, capturing stunning images of distant galaxies and stars. This makes them the ideal instruments for studying distant galaxies, star clusters, and cosmic structures, offering unique insights into the formation, evolution, and composition of the universe. By detecting infrared emissions, SWIR cameras allow astronomers and cosmologists to witness the wonders of galaxies millions of light-years away.

Using the principle that near-infrared light can diffract tiny particles, near-infrared color filters, coating technology and electronic image enhancement technology are used in misty weather to penetrate mist. The monitoring distance is more than 1.5 times that of the visibility, and there is no longer a blind spot for long-distance all-weather security monitoring.

SWIR camera monitoring of marine aquaculture is mainly aimed at monitoring the natural environment, typhoon invasion, theft and invasion of fishing port areas and marine aquaculture functional areas.

Due to the special use environment and target, the current SWIR camera lens is mostly divided into DC drive and video drive, the aperture can be changed, and there is little manual adjustment.

Due to the physical characteristics of optical technology, it is difficult for the focal length and mirror surface size of SWIR camera lenses to make great breakthroughs in recent years.

Due to the large monitoring range and long distance, a lens with a long focal length is generally used, and the day and night mode can meet the monitoring needs of day and night.
