Success Case: Recab developed a camera solution
The light conditions are very challenging, from direct sunlight in to the camera to the dark of the middle of the night. The customer needed an easy way to calibrate the system to get the optical center in the lens and camera to line up correctly.
Recab created a solution so the customer continue to be the leading in the world in Military Surveillance.

Challenge for the Team players at Recab
⇒ The light conditions are very challenging, from direct sunlight in to the camera to the dark of the middle of the night.
⇒ Customer needed an easy way to calibrate the system to get the optical center in the lens and camera to line up correctly.
⇒ A way to keep the option of long exposure times, that is larger than 1s.
⇒ Easy integration with current set up.
Solution for the customer
By choosing a camera from Imperx with a Sony IMX265 sensor we got better resolution and light sensitivity than the previous camera. With HD-SDI interface it was the same as before, so ease of integration was accomplished. The camera also works in a wide temperature range -30 to +75 degrees witch makes the implementation easier for the customer.
The calibration was fixed by an mechanical change to the camera so that the front plate holding the lens and the rest of the camera was separated and adjustable. This saved the customer a lot of time in the calibration step.
A firmware change allowed for longer exposure times than the sensor normally supports.
Benefits for the customer
⇒ Simple Out of the box integration with customers system.
⇒ Time saved in the calibration step.
⇒ Full HD resolution without loss of frame rate and better light sensitivity gives the operator a better image.
