OCI™ Series Hyperspectral Imagers

Product information "OCI™ Series Hyperspectral Imagers"

400-1700 nm; 12-240 Spectral Bands; Push-broom, Snapshot Operation Mode; Spectral Resolution 3-15 nm FWHM; Max. Frame Rate 8-120 fps; Standard Lens 16, 35, 45 mm (21°, 18°, 17° FOV)

Within its OCI™ Series of hyperspectral imagers (OCI is a phonetic spelling of "all seeing eye"), BaySpec offers systems ranging from miniaturized push-broom cameras for visible to near-infrared (NIR) to handheld snapshot hyperspectral imagers, hyperspectral cameras designed specifically for use on unmanned aerial vehicles/systems (UAV/UAS), all the way to ready-to-fly UAV systems for aerial hyperspectral imaging.

OCI™­ F Series cameras are miniaturized (14 x 7 x 7 cm) and lightweight (~570 g) push-broom hyperspectral cameras covering the full visible (VIS) to near-infrared (NIR) wavelength range from 400 to 1000 nm, or short-wave infrared (SWIR) wavelength range from 900 to 1700 nm. The cameras feature a super-speed USB 3.0 interface for fast data transfer rates up to 60 fps. Not dependent on a constant scanning speed, the OCI ­F Series offers versatility on various platforms such as UAVs with perfect hyperspectral image stitching. Three models with 60, 120 or 240 spectral bands are available.

The OCI™-2000 snapshot handheld hyperspectral imager brings high-performance hyperspectral imaging in a handheld form factor weighing only approximately 450 g. The OCI™-2000 imager acquires full, continuous VIS to NIR hyperspectral/multispectral data with simple point-and-shoot operation.

Compact OCI™-OEM hyperspectral cameras are the optical engines of the handheld OCI-1000™ (push-broom) and OCI-2000™ (snapshot) hyperspectral imager, featuring extreme compactness and fast data transfer rate. The high-performance hyperspectral/multispectral cameras work in push-broom mode (OCI™-U-1000) or snapshot mode (OCI™-U-2000) with high spectral resolution and fast speed in a compact form factor weighing less than 180 g. Continuous hyperspectral data capturing can happen at video rates. Compactness, simple operation and optional SDK makes the OCI™-OEM integration an effortless task.

OCI™-UAV airborne hyperspectral cameras are push-broom (OCI™-UAV-1000) or snapshot (OCI™-UAV-2000) cameras designed specifically for use on unmanned aerial vehicles/systems (UAV/UAS), or remotely operated vehicles (ROV). Packed with a high-performance, miniature single-board-computer, they acquire VIS to NIR hyperspectral data with continuous spectral and spatial coverage. Ready-to-fly hyperspectral total solutions are also available. Operating of the OCI-UAV cameras is automatic and requires minimal human intervention.

The OCI™-M+, a push-broom multispectral imager is specifically designed for aerial imaging, featuring a lightweight camera with compact size. It comes with 12 selective bands including three RGB bands, and nine spectral bands from red edge to NIR – most commonly used for precision agriculture. This imager is fully integrated with DJI Inspire 2 UAV allowing the maximum field coverage with high spatial resolution (4000 spatial pixels). Fully integrated and easy to operate, the OCI-M+ UAV ready-to-fly package has made aerial imaging process very straightforward, and is ideal for applications such as precision agriculture, remote sensing, and geological survey.

BaySpec’s OCI™-D airborne VIS-NIR hyperspectral imager with extended wavelength range covers full VIS-NIR wavelength range from 475 to 975 nm. Being a snapshot hyperspectral imager, OCI-D2000 fundamentally eliminates artifacts caused by motions during flight. These innovations significantly reduce the requirements on UAV system, so that integration is almost effortless for many UAV/ROVs. Included with BaySpec’s SpecGrabber™ for camera control and data acquisition, and CubeCreator™ for hyperspectral data processing, the OCI™-D imager offes up to 40 spectral bands with 500x250 pixels and 12 to 15 nm resolution with video rate speed.
