With the rapid development of science and technology, in various fields, the demand for using cameras for detection is growing, and the applications are diverse. The application of imaging technology beyond the human eye is also expanding in various scientific fields.
Among them, UV/Ultraviolet imaging technology in the non-visible region is one of them. UV light has a shorter wavelength than visible light, so it is used to detect subtle scratches and defects that are difficult to detect under visible light. In addition, objects that look the same under visible light, such as transparent plastics and plastic bottles, actually have different absorption rates of UV light, so the use of UV cameras can clearly identify different objects. Therefore, UV cameras can also be used for material selection.
Our company for the needs of the market, specially developed UV imaging system, the camera UV lighting and the corresponding lens together, the whole system can provide the visible light camera can not obtain special visual information.
