Learn how early design decisions can shape the success of infrared imaging systems, and how optical filters can simplify performance, cost and scalability.
Infrared imaging is opening up new possibilities across industries, from life sciences and agriculture to industrial inspection and defence.
It allows systems to see beyond the visible, detect subtle differences and deliver key insights that standard imaging simply can’t provide.
But building an effective infrared system is not just about choosing the right sensor. The real challenge lies in making early, holistic design decisions with confidence.
What wavelengths matter most? Should you use multiplexing or a simpler approach?
And how do you balance performance, complexity and cost without locking yourself into a design that’s hard to scale?
This is where optical filters play a critical role.
Often overlooked or introduced too late in the process, filters can define system performance, enable cleaner signal separation, and even reduce overall system complexity.
Yet many teams assume custom filters are expensive, slow to develop or only needed for niche applications.
In this online panel discussion, our experts will break down how to approach infrared imaging design with confidence.
They’ll compare multiplexed and non-multiplexed systems, explain where each approach makes sense and show how early consideration of optical filters can unlock better results with fewer compromises.
You’ll hear practical insights drawn from real-world applications in life sciences, environmental monitoring, agriculture, telecoms, industrial inspection and defence.
Whether you’re actively developing an IR system or just exploring the potential, this session will help you make smarter decisions from day one.
