A highly ruggedized infra-red sensor module has been developed which is suitable for a variety of fast framing applications in hostile fire detection and in scientific or industrial metrology. The sensor offers <1000fps in the full 384x384 format and useful images up to 6500fps in smaller formats. High operability for either mid-wave or long-wave IR applications is assured with high performance MOVPE fabrication technology. The paper reports design concepts and performance data for the MW variant.
