First Light C-RED New Space

We are proud to introduce our latest innovation: C-RED New Space, a SWIR camera core specifically designed to uphold optical excellence and withstand the extreme conditions of space operations.

Based on a space-approved sensor and with space-designed electronics, the solutions can address applications ranging from high-speed laser beam detection (Free Space Optical communication, beacon beam tracking) to Earth observation and greenhouse gas detection. First Light Imaging can offer a high level of customisation on both the hardware, the electronic design and the firmware.  With multiple on-going projects, C-RED New Space solution has already been successfully integrated into optical payloads.
