Several JAI camera models are available with enhanced near infrared sensitivity. Some of these NIR cameras utilize specialized, near IR CCD image sensors, while others feature standard sensors offering a wide dynamic range over both visible and near IR portions of the spectrum.

Near IR sensitiivity is often used for traffic applications or surveillance/situational awareness, or can be utilized in a specialized NIR inspection camera for identification of blemishes or defects not easily observed in the visible spectrum.

To fit many different applications, JAI offers near IR sensitivity in a wide range of NIR camera types and sizes – from compact interlaced scan cameras, to high-fidelity, high resolution digital progressive scan models equipped with Camera Link or GigE Vision interfaces.
