CHN SPEC FS64-C UAV Hyperspectral Camera (400~1700nm, 100 fps)

CHN SPEC FS64-C UAV Hyperspectral Camera (400~1700nm, 100 fps)

The CHN SPEC FS64-C UAV Hyperspectral Camera (Ultra-wide Wavelength Range 400~1700nm, Frame Rate 100 fps) represents the pinnacle of technology in the aerial spectral imaging scan segment. Unlike conventional multispectral cameras, the FS64-C is a true Hyperspectral Camera, delivering material analysis capabilities at an advanced level thanks to a wavelength range extending from visible light to the short-wave infrared (SWIR) region.

Perfectly optimized for integration onto high-payload unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the CHN SPEC FS64-C is a strategic tool for scientific research projects, geological exploration, high-tech agriculture, and large-scale environmental monitoring.

Outstanding Features of CHN SPEC FS64-C

1. Ultra-Wide Wavelength Range from VNIR to SWIR (400 ~ 1700nm)

The most valuable upgrade on the CHN SPEC FS64-C is its ultra-wide spectral range covering 400nm to 1700nm. The perfect combination of the visible and near-infrared (VNIR) spectrum and the short-wave infrared (SWIR) spectrum allows the camera not only to see surface features but also to “see through” them to analyze chemical structures, water content, internal moisture of objects, and accurately distinguish types of minerals, polymers, or chemical impurities.

2. Peak Scan Speed of 100 fps & Ultra-Fast Data Acquisition Technology

Boasting a frame rate of up to 100 fps (frames per second), the FS64-C allows the UAV to operate at higher flight speeds without losing data or reducing spatial resolution. The device utilizes an advanced line-scan (Push-broom) mechanism, collecting all spatial and spectral information simultaneously on each scan line, ensuring absolute consistency of the map data.

3. Optimized Payload Structure for UAVs

• Premium Lightweight Design: Despite integrating a complex SWIR sensor, the device maintains an optimal weight, making it perfectly compatible with specialized gimbals on industrial UAVs.
• High-Bandwidth Storage: Equipped with a high-speed solid-state drive (SSD) storage system, ensuring smooth recording of massive hyperspectral data streams (high bit depth) at a scan rate of 100 fps without frame drops.
• Durable Operation: High adaptive vibration resistance and an intelligent cooling system help the camera operate stably under harsh weather conditions in field environments.

4. Advanced Geodetic-Grade Analysis Software

The system comes with a complete suite of powerful control and post-processing software:

• Supports flight planning and live image quality control during the scanning process.
• Automatic radiometric and geometric calibration algorithms help export data into standardized hyperspectral cubes (Hypercubes).
• Fully compatible with the world’s leading remote sensing and geodetic analysis software, such as ENVI, providing maximum convenience for data specialists.
