Midwave Infrared Cooled Camera
Core Products
Key Features:
Cooled Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) detector
Advanced image processing embedded in hardware and software
Easy to integrate into gimbals, thermal weapon sights, and security products

Design In High-Resolution
MWIR Thermal Imaging
3 Cooled-Core Cameras
OEMs select FLIR Core-275Z, Mini-Core HRC or MCT Modules because they provide unparalleled visibility of long-range targets. Working in
the midwave infrared spectrum (3 5 m), these cooled thermal camera cores are ideal for gimbals, security and surveillance products and
thermal weapons sights.
Midwave thermal cameras are the most affordable route into a 640 x 512 resolution imager for your product. FLIR midwave thermal cores operate
in low f/#, allowing for more compact and affordable lenses. Plus, midwave detectors are more effective in warm and humid conditions because of
better atmospheric transmission.
For more information on these thermal camera cores and all of FLIRs OEM solutions, please visit FLIR.com/OEM.

About FLIR OEM


FLIR Systems provides components and cores for a large number of advanced thermal imaging platforms. Thermal imaging camera cores are
subsystems designed to allow integration into other systems. Camera cores can be used in whole or subsystem form by an OEM in several
applications. Other FLIR OEM components include longwave, shortwave and near infrared camera cores, laser pointers and rangefinders, readout integrated circuits (ROICs) for infrared and x-ray as well as high-performance pan-tilts.

What Comes with FLIR


Midwave Camera Cores
Continuous Optical Zoom
Core-275Z and Mini-Core HRC are both capable of continuous zoom, which give operators an advantage of working back and forth between a
narrow and wide field of view without ever losing sight of the target.

Cooled MCT Detector


The Mercury Cadmium Telluride (MCT) detector offers excellent range performance. It produces a crisp thermal image of 640 x 512 pixels
(320 x 256 resolution is available with MCT 3000 modules), and compared to a cooled core image, you can see more detail, farther away.

Multiple Fields-of-View Optics


MCT 3000 and Mini-Core HRC are all available with multiple fields-of-view optics, extending range performance beyond whats possible with a
continuous zoom lens. Wide-angle lenses provide situational awareness while narrow angle lenses provide details you need to confirm why a
target caught your eye in a wide or medium angle image.

Easy Integration
These turnkey thermal imagers have advanced image processing features built in and are ready for system integration. They incorporate easily
with common power and video interfaces found in existing and new systems.

Advanced Image Processing


Powerful image processing algorithms are embedded in these thermal imagers hardware and software. Automatic Gain Control (AGC),
histogram equalization and other functions guarantee high-quality thermal imaging day or night.

Digital Detail Enhancement


Core-275Z and Mini-Core HRC include FLIR Systems patented Digital Detail Enhancement (DDE) algorithm. DDE assures clear, properly
contrasted thermal images and delivers a high-contrast image even in extremely dynamic thermal scenes.

Midwave Infrared Cooled


Camera Core Produts
Mini-Core
The Mini-Core midwave thermal camera core is highly configurable and extremely
OEM-friendly. Whether you want triple field-of-view optics (460T), continuous optical
zoom (300Z), fixed-lens or a lens-less core, Mini-Core HRC is an extremely flexible,
compact solution.
Other key features of Mini-Core HRC include:



Non Uniformity Correction


Bad Pixel Replacement
Digital Detail Enhancement (DDE)
Advanced Image Processing

Mini-Core X00Z
These two Mini-Core models feature two continuous optical zoom options. The 300Z
is equipped with a 20x 15-300 mm zoom lens and continuously zooms between a
1.8 narrow field of view and a 36 wide field of view. The 600Z is equipped with a
20x 30-600mm lens and continuously zooms between a 0.9 narrow field of view
and an 18 wide field of view.

Mini-Core 460T
This Mini-Core comes with wide, medium and narrow fields-of-view lenses and can
switch from one to the other in a fraction of a second.

Mini-Core: Fixed Lens


Available with 25, 50, 100 or 200mm interchangeable lenses, OEMs can make one
design and just change the lens according to user need.

Lens-Less Core
OEMs that want to design in their own optical path can still take advantage of all the
features and capabilities of the FLIR Mini-Core HRC.

Core-275Z
FLIR Core-275Z is the newest, most compact mid-wave thermal camera in this
series. There are two continuous optical zoom options, including a 1.5x extender.
Core-275Z also has an electronic flip function that flips an image upside down
and left to right. In an airborne application when a tracked object moves beneath
the camera, the image can be inverted to maintain the correct display orientation.
This electronic functionality is much more reliable compared to the more common
mechanical flip function.

MCT 3000
FLIR MCT 3000 is the only camera core in this series thats available in
320 x 256 pixel resolution. Its also available with wide, medium and narrow
triple field-of-view optics and can be equipped with an extender lens for even longer
range performance.

Vilga Tracker and E-Stabilization


Vilga video processor, offers video tracking to a selected targetfrom multiple video
sources installed in the optical payload. Vilga also offers electronic stabilization of
images from external sensors. This can be useful when cameras are installed on
high poles or in other environments susceptible to movement caused by wind or
other factors.
