Camera specifics
-
Could you please add the specifications (wavelength, power) of the light source used in the camera?
-
@chronobob The light source is made up of 3 near-infrared LEDs. The wavelength of the light centres around 850nm.
Will have more information on the power later this week.
-
@Lazar-Demin Thanks for the information. Any idea how broad the peak is? Do you have a spectrum? I am asking because it would be great if we could use your camera together with a photon multiplier tube (see attached spectrum for H11870-01).
-
@chronobob here is the emission spectrum of the LEDs:
Can I ask what is your intended use case?
-
@Lazar-Demin Thanks very much. Unfortunately, that does not state any absolute photon intensity, but the spectrum is very useful. The intended use is in an experiment where we want to measure bioluminescence emission via the PMT, but at the same time monitor for movement via a camera system. As "normal cameras don't usually need more light than our signal and would introduce too high levels of noise, we are looking for a way to sidestep this issue, and your camera might be a possibility.
