The ULTRIS X20, the world’s first UV-VIS-NIR hyperspectral video imager, boasts an unusual range of 350-1000 nm. This advanced camera produces pristine hyperspectral images with a native resolution of 410 x 410 and 164 spectral bands, achieving unparalleled operational speed.

This adaptable imaging solution is offered in three distinct housings to meet various deployment needs: IP40 for standard drone applications, IP65 for enhanced durability, and IP68 for waterproof and underwater uses, such as with UUVs.

Building on the capabilities of the base model, the ULTRIS X20 Plus incorporates a panchromatic camera sensor, elevating the spatial resolution of the spectral camera to 1880 x 1880, which enhances detail and spatial accuracy significantly.

Weighing in at under 690g, the ULTRIS X20 Plus is perfectly suited for integration with a variety of drone platforms. Additionally, a specially designed UXG Gimbal is available for seamless mounting on the DJI Matrice M300/350 RTK.

The ULTRIS XMR represents a next-generation VNIR camera that spans the 430 to 910 nm spectrum, offering an impressive 1 megapixel native spatial resolution. It captures 61 spectral images simultaneously, providing a rich dataset that yields critical insights across numerous applications.

This camera features USB3 connectivity for straightforward integration and improved data transfer capabilities. It can also be customized to meet specific needs, including adjustments to the wavelength range, number of spectral bands, and lens options.

The ULTRIS 5 is Cubert’s most compact hyperspectral imaging camera,offering a competitive price-to-performance ratio against RGB and multispectral alternatives. With a 5MP sensor that covers the 450-850 nm VNIR range and a weight of just 120g,it is ideal for drone OEMs.

This miniature camera can be fitted with a Relay Lens Adapter, allowing for the quick attachment of any C-mount lens, including macro or fisheye lenses. An HFR variant is also available, featuring 10 GigE connectivity, which maximizes the potential of the integrated Sony IMX250 sensor with frame rates reaching up to 75Hz.

The ULTRIS SWIR 1 is a state-of-the-art hyperspectral snapshot camera that operates within the 980 to 1650 nm range, achieving remarkable frame rates of up to 80 Hz.This ensures effective and comprehensive capture of highly dynamic scenes. its compact and lightweight design makes it ideal for SWaP-constrained drone platforms.

This versatile imaging solution allows for easy lens attachment and swapping via a C-mount adapter.The SWIR range enables the camera to support various applications, including moisture content mapping and soil analysis.

CUVIS is an advanced hyperspectral imaging software suite that offers a robust set of real-time data acquisition and analysis features, streamlining workflows for users.
