CamIR & CamUV
High performance, sensitive USB cameras for the detection and alignment of lasers
The excellent sensitivity of the phosphor based scintillators within our CamIR and CamUV range provides a cost effective solution for reliable detection of laser beam profiles Using our established technology, we have developed the CamIR family from the original CamIR1550 1.2MP camera to offer a choice of 2 models for infrared detection: the CamIR 1.6M and CamIR 2.8M; and then further extended the range with our newest model, CamUV 1.6M, designed specifically to visualise UV radiation.
All models are optimised for the highest sensitivity in their respective wavelength ranges and are ideally suited to laser beam profiling and analysis. CamIR typical applications also include beam location / alignment of communications band emitters, lasers, high-speed fibre optics, or direct imaging through an attached lens. While CamUV has applications within machine vision, product quality monitoring, and general UV detection.
Each Digital Camera kit includes:
- CamIR 1.6M, CamIR 2.8M, or CamUV 1.6M
- USB 3.1 cable
- USB Flash drive containing software

Sensitivity of the CamIR Camera Sensor Coating
CamIR Adapter – Allowing you to extend the performance of your existing camera
For easy and cost-effective adaptation or your own camera for use at 1550nm, we provide an optical assembly that is coated with the same high-performance phosphor that is used in our CamIR.
Scintacor CamIR adaptor
The CamIR adapter enables standard CMOS and CCD cameras to image in the NIR range of 1495 – 1595nm. The module is inserted between a large format lens and the camera to give an instant imaging system which extends the sensitivity into the telecoms wavelength bands.
Scintacor’s proprietary conversion optics converts the incoming 1495 – 1595nm light to camera-detectable wavelengths without undesirable fading or lag during use. The large format anti-reflection coated input window ensures maximum image resolution.
Typical applications
- Laser beam profiling
- Telecommunications device manufacturing control
- Telecommunications testing and inspection
- Optical fibre checking and spectroscopy
- Product quality monitoring
Why Scintacor?
Scintacor’s expertise in phosphor selection has enabled us to develop the CamUV, CamIR range and CamIR adapter as excellent, low cost tools for detecting and monitoring IR radiation.
