METS Electro-Optical Tester

CI Systems offers a range of Test Stations for Electro-Optical (E-O) systems such as Multi Sensor Systems and Payloads.

The Test Stations are built to provide a comprehensive turnkey solution for all the testing needs of the E-O system’s sensors.

These stations are based on MIL-Standard test equipment suitable for use throughout all stages of the UUT's life cycle. All tests are performed by a single turnkey E-O test station.

The test systems are based on CI Systems' NIST traceable blackbody radiation sources, collimators and special thermally controlled targets designed to provide very accurate IR test patterns.

The CTE software is designed for testing E-O imagers, E-O detectors and Lasers. CI Systems' hardware, together with its CTE integrated test software, provides the basic platform for electro-optical testing in a known and reliable test environment.

Blackbodies

CI Systems' NIST traceable Blackbodies are state of the art , highly accurate and stable with different standard sizes and temperature ranges. Whether standalone or system integrated, pick and choose your extended area blackbodies or cavity blackbodies to meet your needs. Supports a wide range of accessories.

Common Tests for IR Imagers

CI Systems' hardware together with its integrated test software provide the basic platform for electro-optical testing in a known reliable test environment. The MTF, NETD, SiTF, MRTD and Uniformity tests provide the necessary tools to determine the imager performance. Other tests are available upon request to complete the required testing of the UUT.

CFT Compact Field Tester

CI Systems has a wide range of field testers to easily test and approve FLIR systems in the field. These systems include compact Field IR test collimators that easily lets the operator test and approve FLIR systems without having to dismantle the Unit Under Test (UUT) from the combat vehicle.

Collimators

CI Systems provides a wide range of collimators with various apertures and focal length. For a wide spectral band ranging from the visible, via the SWIR, MWIR up to the LWIR, CI Systems' collimators deliver high on-axis performance without obscuration. Ideally suited as part of an optical test bench and with CI Systems' test software provides a wide range of applications, such as, automated FLIR, CCD, LASER and Boresight testing on the production floor, lab or depot.

Infrared Targets

CI Systems has extensive experience and state of the art manufacturing capabilities to provide a wide range of IR-targets and Visible targets for the electro-optical test systems. The IR targets are highly accurate and manufactured to produce high emissivity on the target side. CI Systems specializes in manufacturing targets that can be adapted to any electro-optical system, within the operating spectral bandwidth.
