Specim AisaFENIX1K system mounted on platform with PCU and PDU units on stabilized platform

Specim’s AisaFENIX 1K is a full spectrum hyperspectral camera ideal for remote sensing of the environment and other aerial survey applications. 

The AisaFENIX 1K hyperspectral sensor with 1024 spatial pixels takes the productivity of hyperspectral imaging to an entirely new level.

AisaFENIX 1K swath width with 1024 pixel sensor compared to AisaFENIX 384 pixels sensor

It produces the same top quality full-spectrum hyperspectral data as does its forerunner, AisaFENIX. At the same time, it reduces the flight costs by 60 %, because fewer flight lines are required or collect data with higher accuracy when flying at same height as before.
