Is that the same as a panchromatic camera?
Edit:
Asking because I have a 410x410px hyperspectral imager that has an aligned 1886x1886px panchromatic imager that is use to perform pan-sharpening of the HSI data bringing it up to 1886x1886. I'd never heard of a panchromatic camera before I got involved in this business and I've never heard of an achromatic camera either. All I seem to find is achromatic lenses.
- FriedPickles 2y agoYes, "panchromatic" is probably the more accurate term for it. It's just a camera with no color filters and a known spectral response curve that's high enough across the frequencies being imaged.
- lsaferite 2y agoAh, yeah, I'd say that fits 'panchromatic camera' then. The panchromatic imager on my setup uses the exact same CCD and covers the exact same spectral range (350nm-1000nm), but it doesn't have the HSI lenses/filters. The company actually sells a smaller unit that is made from the same imager, but with the HS lens/filters.
