The M1 camera, powered by SCD Cardinal sensor platform, is a high-sensitivity VIS-SWIR camera with extended spectral range from 0.6µm to 1.7µm.
The camera uses a 640 x 512 format InGaAs detector with a 15μm pixel pitch and integral anti-blooming. On-chip correlated double sampling delivers a dynamic range in excess of 70dB with readout noise of less than 40 rms electrons making it ideal for light-starved applications (total noise including dark current is typically 60 rms electrons).
