Cooled Infrared Sensors Market Size, Share, & Trends Estimation Report By Spectrum Range

A cooled infrared sensor is a type of thermal imaging camera with a detector that is kept below room temperature by a cryogenic cooler. The main benefit of cooled detectors over uncooled detectors is that they are more sensitive, which means that images are clearer from farther away or when there is less light. Cooled detectors are less likely to pick up noise and can be made much smaller than detectors that don't have to be cooled. Several industries, such as aerospace and defense, mining, oil and gas, and consumer electronics, use cooled infrared sensors more and more.
