ULIS, a manufacturer of high-quality infrared (IR) imaging sensors for thermography, security, automotive and military applications, announced today that it will launch Pico640E(TM), a new VGA (video graphics array) 640 x 480 17-micron IR imaging sensor that offers new advantages in size, performance and factor of merit. It responds to needs from camera manufacturers and other imaging-system designers for large format, small-form factor, uncooled IR sensors that optimize the trade-off between performance and sensor response speed.
