Designing light: how optical filters shape SWIR imaging

Optical filters are the silent heroes of imaging systems. In SWIR applications, they determine what wavelengths are captured, how precise the data is, and how well sensors perform in real-world conditions.

👉 And yes — we’ll dive into this topic at the HortiQD Industry Workshop!
🗓️ 26 November – online 🔗 https://www.hortiqd-project.eu/hortiqd-industry-workshop/

3D Photos of Solar Wind Will Reveal More About What We See As Auroras

The goal of the mission is to examine how solar corona transitions into solar wind, which is what is visible as auroras on Earth.

Why are some food inspections moving beyond visible light? Shortwave infrared (#SWIR) technology allows machine vision systems to see what the human eye and even traditional cameras can’t. SWIR cameras, combined with sputter-coated filters, help identify subtle defects related to #FoodSupply, such as bruises in produce, imperfections in packaging, and even bone and tissue composition in meat.

Hey #ASTER Community. I need your help.
Maybe I found an issue in the L1T data or I'm stupid😄

For each sensor #VNIR, #SWIR, #TIR, there are the same tie-points. In the specification it is said that the reference point is the centre of the first raster pixel (0.5,0.5). But this can't be for all the sensors. because the pixel size is different. For SWIR it would need to be (0.25,0.25) and for TIR (0.083,0.083).
