Teledyne FLIR OEM, a segment of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, today confirmed that its series of dual-use thermal camera modules—Neutrino®, Boson®, Hadron™, and Lepton®—meet the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) compliance standards, enabling their use by U.S. government contractors and OEMs to develop secure, high-performance thermal imaging solutions.
The NDAA restricts the use of certain foreign-made video surveillance and telecom products in U.S. defense systems. Teledyne FLIR OEM’s NDAA-compliant thermal modules are eligible for a wide range of federal, state, and local government contracts and integrate easily with current and emerging defense platforms including ground vehicles, unmanned systems, missile seekers, threat warning devices, targeting solutions, counter-UAS platforms, precision strike systems, and soldier gear.
The NDAA-compliant product line features:
Neutrino LC and SX8: Compact MWIR focal plane arrays capable of operating at high temperatures, suited for handheld, gimbal, and targeting systems.
Neutrino QX and SX12: High-resolution, rapid-frame MWIR modules designed for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, counter-drone, and wide-area motion imaging missions.
Neutrino IS: Combines continuous zoom lenses with Neutrino LC and SX modules to provide SWaP-optimized, high-performance imaging solutions.
Neutrino Ground ISR: Complete MWIR packages for developers of long-range ground ISR systems.
Boson: Uncooled LWIR radiometric cameras with 12 µm pixel pitch available in two resolutions and various frame rates.
Boson+: A premium Boson version offering superior thermal sensitivity with NETD less than 20 millikelvin.
Boson+ CZ: Integrates a 5x continuous zoom lens with the Boson+ LWIR module for enhanced performance and simplified system integration.
Hadron 640: Integrates a 64-megapixel visible camera with a 640×512 Boson thermal sensor in a single compact module for easier deployment on unmanned systems.
Lepton: The world’s highest-volume LWIR thermal imaging module, facilitating broad scalability in thermal imaging applications.
All NDAA-compliant modules are designed and assembled in the United States with secure supply chains and final testing conducted at the company’s Goleta, California facility. These products are non-ITAR and fall under the export jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Commerce.
