Álava Ingenieros has announced the incorporation of a new technological partner, HeadWall Photonics, providing high-quality hyperspectral cameras and hyperspectral imaging systems.

blankHeadwall Photonics, company that designs and manufactures hyperspectral imaging systems, optical modules and holographic diffraction networks, has become part of the group of partners of Alava Engineers. This American technology firm accumulates more than 33 years of experience designing high-performance spectrometers for different OEM customers, and more than 15 years in providing precision hyperspectral imaging systems for space applications, military and civilian, both aerial and ground-based, as well as research, academic development and industrial process control.

Designed for use in the laboratory or in the harshest environments (UAVs for example), las cámaras hiperespectrales Hyperspec y Micro-Hyperspec de Headwall están fabricadas según un diseño óptico totalmente reflectivo de apertura f/2, based on a patented system with image aberration correction incorporating original grids of very high holographic efficiency, original also from Headwall. These original holographic grids offer high optical efficiency free of distortions, una excelente relación señal-ruido y una luz parásita muy baja comparado con los sistemas transmisivos convencionales basados en prismas.

The application areas for these hyperspectral cameras are very numerous., ranging from laboratory creation of hyperspectral image libraries in different fields of research to remote sensing, perimeter surveillance or mining.
