Description
Neutrino SWaP+C Optimised HOT FPA MWIR Camera Modules
The Neutrino Series OEM camera modules are designed for integration into a higher level system. The VGA-resolution Neutrino LC and the newly released SXGA-resolution Neutrino SX8 provide best-in-class MWIR imagery and data in a small, lightweight package.
The Neutrino Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C) series are OEM camera modules are designed for ruggedised products requiring long life, low power consumption, and quiet, low-vibration operation. These cameras utilise Teledyne FLIR’s linear micro-cooler and High Operating Temperature (HOT) Focal Plane Array (FPA) technology.
Both are ideal for small gimbals and airframes, handheld devices, security cameras, targeting devices, and asset monitoring applications.
The Neutrino SWaP Series is simply the best technical solution available. With nearly off-the-shelf delivery (ITAR free), industry-leading two-year warranty, well-known product support and product reliability, the Neutrino Series is a low risk solution.

Neutrino SWaP Series HOT FPA Optimised MWIR Camera Modules
The Neutrino LC and Neutrino SX8 provide best-in-class MWIR imagery and data in a lightweight package:
- VGA and SXGA formats in a SWaP envelope
- ITAR free
- Low-power linear micro-cooler provides quick cool-down time
- Industry-leading two-year warranty
Neutrino LC Series Key Benefits
- SWaP+C optimised design saves space, weight, and power, resulting in operational and cost benefits and the ability to integrate into smaller spaces
- T2SL HOT FPA provides superb MWIR imagery
- Tight optics-to-camera tolerances minimise optics size and mass
- Best-in-class power consumption
Affordable Total Package Revolutionising MWIR Imaging
Teledyne FLIR is the first integrated solutions provider capable of supplying high-performance MWIR camera modules and continuous zoom optic assemblies.
FLIR accelerates time to market for MWIR imaging platform developers with vertically integrated, size-weight-and-power (SWaP) optimised camera modules and zoom optics. Developers can work with a single solutions provider to produce all of the subsystems necessary for a complete platform.
This includes the IR detector, zoom optics, electronics, and packaging results are shorter design cycles, streamlined procurement, increased reliability, and reduced end-item lead time.
Neutrino Software GUI
The Neutrino Demo Application or graphical user interface (GUI) allows developers to quickly start streaming video from the Neutrino LC or the Neutrino SX8. The GUI provides access to functions available within the SDK and uses the x64 Windows 10 program.
It connects to the camera module via an accessory board and provides access to a number of image appearances, NUC calibration, and system settings to help with development. Example interfaces include and are not limited to CMOS and HDMI video mode, LVDS/Camera Link, NUC threshold, NUC gain, image stats controls, and FFC controls.
The interface also provides access to a wide range of diagnostic features such as diagnostic control and the status panel useful for quick troubleshooting. It can load and save configuration files to and from the Neutrino camera module.
