Fujitsu Develops a Small and Highly Sensitive Infrared Camera – Automatic Ship Navigation Monitoring

Fujitsu Laboratory: High sensitivity infrared camera

developed a high-sensitivity infrared camera that takes high-resolution photographs at night and distant.

・Miniaturize the sensor of the light receiving section to 1/8 size

・ Semiconductor structure of sensor, which reduces thermal noise effect, adopted

The operating temperature of the sensor can be increased by 50 ° C or more than the conventional product.

Miniaturization of cooling system:

It is no longer necessary to powerfully cool the sensor, making it possible to reduce the size of the cooling system.

It is now possible to manufacture a palm-sized high-sensitivity infrared camera.

Automatic identification of vessels 6 nautical miles ahead:

When Fujitsu combined the image captured with a high-sensitivity infrared camera with the AI technology for image processing,

We succeeded in automatically identifying ships navigating 6 nautical miles.
