MYK-A/IR-384

Product Overview

The MYK-A/IR-384 is a miniaturized, fully integrated thermal imaging module engineered for platforms where every gram and milliwatt matter. Its compact footprint and low power draw make it ideal for integration into robot gimbals, individual helmet systems, compact pods, and other intelligent devices that demand reliable thermal awareness in a tiny package.

At its core, the module leverages a high-sensitivity VOx microcalorimeter operating at 384×288 resolution to deliver clear thermal imagery with excellent detail. Integrated calibration options, analog CVBS output, and support for rich image processing functions give developers a ready-to-deploy thermal block that drops into space-limited platforms without compromise.
