Pulsed illuminator TARA2000-AUT

NIRredcompact

Automotive qualified high-power flood illuminator for 3D ToF and 2D NIR based in-cabin sensing systems Features >4W optical output power in a pulsed mode Edge-to-Edge high-power illumination over a rectangular field Multiple wavelength and field-of-illumination options Full in-house design for high efficiency and reliability AECQ-102 and ISO26262 ASIL A compliant Benefits Increased image quality Reduced footprint on PCB Robustness against sunlight and sunglass reflections Reduced red glow to passengers For ToF systems: High modulation frequency and accuracy Product parameters Field of Illumination [ 46x41 (UN), 59x42 (N), and 125.5x111.5 or 129.5x114.5 (UW) Footprint [mm] - 4.1x4.1x1.38 General description The TARA2000-AUT is designed for the new generation of 2D and 3D optical in-cabin sensing applications, where a high power illumination and high signal-to-noise ratio is needed under all circumstances. VCSEL based illumination enables maximum image quality with minimum PCB footprint, and combined with a narrow spectral bandwidth ensures robustness against sunlight and sunglass reflections inside the car. The ultra-compact module is designed and manufactured with ams‘ state-of-the-art opto-electronics component manufacturing processes and is AECQ-102 and ISO26262 compliant, a first in its class. TARA2000-AUT can be used both for 2D NIR-imaging and for 3D sensing systems such as time-of-flight and stereo vision. Different wavelength options offer flexibility to customers using different optical systems,
