METRA Series — Radiometric Thermal Modules

The Metra series covers compact radiometric LWIR integration across two platforms. METRA-256/384/640 use a 20×20mm cross-section, full-field dual-range radiometry (-20~150℃ and 100~550℃ at ±2℃/±2%) and driver-free UVC video over USB 2.0. METRA-1280-19UT adds a 1280×1024 detector, fixed 19 mm lens, 50 Hz imaging / 30 Hz thermometry and USB 3.0. Eight fixed-lens SKUs support robots, UAV pods, fire detection and smart equipment.
