NDAA-compliant, AI-ready, and ITAR-free infrared camera module provides superior performance, industry-leading reliability, and simplified integration for long-range surveillance and C-UAS applications.
Teledyne FLIR OEM, a Teledyne Technologies Incorporated company, today announced the launch of Neutrino SX8 ISR 50-1000, the latest addition to the rebranded Neutrino ISR Series (formerly the Neutrino Ground ISR Series). With a 20x continuous zoom (CZ), the high-performance model represents the longest-range solution to date in the entire Neutrino ISR lineup.
"The intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) market in 2026 continues to expand to accommodate new applications and changing needs. The Neutrino SX8 ISR 50-1000 is engineered to meet the most demanding long-range requirements for border surveillance, perimeter security, and counter-UAS (C-UAS) missions," said Jared Faraudo, vice president of product management, Teledyne FLIR OEM. "The Neutrino ISR 50-1000 has the longest detection, recognition, and identification (DRI) ranges in the Neutrino ISR series with vehicle detection at 34 km, recognition at 23.5 km, and identification at 20 km."
The Neutrino SX8 ISR 50-1000 is a turnkey solution for integrators developing mid- and long-range ISR systems. Combining Teledyne FLIR OEM's world-class Neutrino mid-wave infrared (MWIR) camera modules with fully integrated CZ lenses delivers a complete, differentiated solution. The single-source camera, lens, and electronics delivers market-leading performance while reducing development risk, costs, and time to market.
The Neutrino SX8 ISR 50-1000 utilizes a cooled 1280x1024 thermal resolution Neutrino SX8 MWIR sensor with an 8 µm pixel pitch, providing optimal thermal sensitivity and high-performance imaging. The 50 mm to 1000 mm CZ lens is factory integrated to simplify integration and optimize performance. The system features a long-life Teledyne FLIR FL100 linear Stirling cooler with a mean time to failure (MTTF) of greater than 27,000 hours, backed by an industry-leading two-year warranty.
To simplify development and reduce time to market, the module incorporates market-leading image processing and interface electronics with AgileCore™ imaging electronics from InVeo Designs LLC. The industry-standard interface offers flexible connectivity options for seamless integration into networked systems, including Gigabit Ethernet, Camera Link, and HD-SDI.
The Neutrino SX8 ISR 50-1000 is also Prism™ AI ready, supporting Teledyne FLIR OEM's advanced AI models for detection, tracking, and classification. Integrators can also leverage Prism ISP libraries for enhanced data fidelity through features such as super-resolution, atmospheric turbulence mitigation, and contrast enhancement.
The Neutrino SX8 ISR 50-1000 is NDAA-compliant and ITAR-free. It is classified under the U.S. Department of Commerce jurisdiction as EAR 6A003.b.4.a, providing greater flexibility for development with foreign customers. Integrators also have access to a comprehensive software development kit (SDK), integration support, and documentation from the highly qualified technical services team at Teledyne FLIR OEM.
