Customized Multispectral Systems Designed for Specialized Applications

The JAI Fusion Flex-Eye is a highly customizable multispectral imaging solution designed for applications requiring precise, pixel-level spectral differentiation. Built on JAI’s proven prism-based Fusion Series architecture, the Flex-Eye allows you to tailor the camera’s spectral configuration to match your exact inspection or analysis requirements. 

Unlike predefined multispectral camera models, the Flex-Eye provides complete flexibility in selecting two or three curated wavebands across the visible and near-infrared spectrum. Each waveband is implemented using high-quality optical filters integrated into JAI’s precision-aligned dichroic prism block. 

This enables you to design a multispectral camera that captures the most relevant spectral information for your specific materials, products, or processes.

A Tailored Approach to Multispectral Imaging

The custom configuration can be easily completed through JAI's user-friendly online tool that walks you through the customization process step-by-step. The user is prompted to select the number of sensors, desired resolution, type of sensor, and can 'drag and place' your wavebands directly on a spectral chart at the widths and locations that you need. 

Wavebands can be as narrow as 25 nm and positioned exactly where you need them, anywhere in the 405 to 1000 nm range. Equipped with Sony Pregius CMOS sensors, this system offers excellent image quality and high frame rate capabilities. The camera can be equipped with sensors offering 1.6 MP per waveband, or 3.2 MP per waveband. Up to three separate wavebands at full resolution can be specified, or a Bayer sensor can be utilized for interpolation or to extract additional spectral information during post processing.

High-speed 10 GigE interfaces offer multi-stream technology. Wavebands can be analyzed separately, or combined or overlaid on other wavebands depending on the specific requirements of the application. Auto-negotiation technology enables automatic adjustment to slower speeds if necessitated by the network.

JAI will work with you to review and confirm the feasibility of your design, and determine any final special requirements prior to development.
