Excelitas portfolio includes PCO imaging and thermal camera platforms to core photonics components that round out end-to-end measurement solutions. The product families below highlight major solution groups within the Excelitas portfolio.
Scientific Cameras
In research environments where image fidelity drives the outcome, Excelitas PCO scientific camera families center at sCMOS performance for high-quality, quantitative imaging. The portfolio includes both cooled and uncooled options to accommodate different experimental needs, balancing low-noise performance and long-exposure capability for low-light work with compact, lower-power configurations for streamlined setups. Across the family, the emphasis is fast acquisition, strong dynamic range, and clean data that supports reliable measurement in fields such as microscopy, astronomy, and advanced laboratory imaging.
High-speed Cameras
Designed for capturing events that unfold in fractions of a second, the pco.dimax high-speed camera family is built for rugged, real-world test environments. These cameras pair very high frame rates with strong light sensitivity and robust color rendering, packaged in a compact, durable design suited to harsh conditions. With synchronization and triggering features tailored for repeatable test workflows, this family is commonly deployed in automotive safety and industrial testing where consistent high-speed capture is essential.
Intensified Cameras
For ultra-fast phenomena that demand extreme temporal control and maximum sensitivity, Excelitas pco.dicam intensified camera families deliver intensified imaging with exposure capabilities that reach into the nanosecond domain. By combining image intensification with modern sensor technology and high dynamic range capture, these systems are designed to reveal transient events and low-light processes that standard cameras cannot resolve. The result is a specialized platform for precise visualization and measurement of rapid physical, chemical, and photonic interactions.
Industrial Cameras
Built with system integration in mind, Excelitas PCO industrial camera families provide reliable performance across a broad range of machine vision and inspection requirements. The portfolio spans multiple sensor technologies, including CCD, sCMOS, InGaAs, and line scan architectures, enabling teams to match the camera family to the job rather than forcing compromises in the imaging chain. With practical interfaces for power and data and software designed to accelerate implementation, these cameras are a strong fit for production-focused imaging systems.
FLIM Camera Systems
For fluorescence lifetime imaging applications that require both speed and wide-field capture, the pco.flim family combines camera and laser components into a coordinated system designed for frequency-domain FLIM workflows. This product group enables pixel-wise lifetime measurements and is engineered for efficient setup and flexible coupling into instrument designs. It is well suited to biomedical and advanced research applications where lifetime distributions provide deeper insight than intensity images alone.
Detectors and Sensors
Excelitas detector and sensor families provide the photonic front end for measurement systems that depend on precise light detection and reliable signal conversion. The portfolio spans silicon and InGaAs photodetectors, avalanche photodiodes, hybrid receivers, and photon counting modules for high-performance sensing, alongside thermal IR sensors and modules used for motion and presence detection, temperature measurement, and gas-related monitoring. These families are designed to scale from specialized instrumentation to high-volume deployment.
Light Sources
Excelitas illumination families cover specialty light generation across multiple source types, from discrete emitters to integrated illumination subsystems. Options include LED, laser, lamp, UVC, and infrared heating technologies, with design pathways that can be tailored to application-specific requirements. This breadth makes the portfolio a strong fit for OEMs and system builders who need illumination that aligns with performance targets, environmental constraints, and long-term reliability demands.
Optics
Excelitas optics families span precision components and engineered assemblies across a wide spectral range, offering both extensive off-the-shelf selection and advanced customization. The lineup includes core optical elements, coated components, polarization and electro-optics, as well as integrated modules and complex sub-assemblies built for demanding applications across scientific, medical, semiconductor, aerospace, defense, inspection, and machine vision. Within this portfolio, LINOS imaging lens families are designed specifically for automated optical inspection and machine vision, providing practical pathways for both standard builds and specialized optical requirements.
