NEW: 60x40 Thermopile Array
We are proud to announce this new generation thermopile array sensor that uses quite a number of innovative technolgies. It is fair to say that a new generation of thermopile array sensors was created.
Have a look at the specs that speak for itself:
- 60x40 pixel resolution
- Super sharp contrast with MTF >0.9 over the whole image
- 21.2 Hz standard framerate (full image)
- 90x60° field of view
- Super high sensitivity of <90 mK NETD
- ONLY 15mW power consumption
- NO dual use restrictions for easy import and export
- Small 12mm diameter TO-39 housing
All this became possible with a completely renewed design including 45µm thermopile pixels - the smallest ever reported. We use a fast 6 PIN SPI communication to achieve high framerates of 21.2 Hz in calibrated temperature mode and even 45 Hz for uncalibrated voltage mode, which can be used for person detection.
The power consumption of just 15mW is outstanding and even lower than that of our 32x32 thermopile array sensors. Together with fields of view of up to 90°, this new sensors are ideally suited for battery driven smart home applications.

We are pleased to introduce already two other HowTo videos. These step-by-step clips regarding our USB Application Set and the WiFi Application Shield help our customers to easily get started. Have a look at the videos below.
Our Heimann Sensor team is pleased to share a great success story: One of our innovative sensors has been included into a new thermal imaging camera that is now available at LIDL throughout Germany and internationally. In this way, this kind of product has become affordable to the masses. After a couple days, the cameras were already sold out in the supermarkets. Nevertheless, the camera is still available on the LIDL online shop at https://www.lidl.de/p/parkside-4-v-waermebildkamera-pwbka-4-a1-1024-messpunkte/p100377390 . The heart of this camera is the Heimann Sensor HTPA32x32d array sensor, which enables spatially resolved temperature measurements for professional use as well as everyday use. For example, it is possible to detect heat loss in buildings or to analyze electrical systems. This success is a further proof of the high quality and competitiveness of Heimann Sensor products.
We are pleased to introduce our new webinar series. Starting with a step-by-step guide of our UDP (Ethernet) application set, you will learn how easy it is to get a thermal video recording with our HTPA arrays. Watch out for future webinar clips!
Heimann Sensor is looking forward to participating in the 25th China International Optoelectronic Exhibition, which takes place 11-13 September 2024 in Shenzhen Bao'an International and Exhibition Center. Meet us at booth no. 8E06 - in cooperation with our sales partner Shenzhen Longxiang Technology Co, Ltd.
The modern world is full of sensors used in a wide range of application: from industrial automation to medical technology. With an impressive history and a focus on innovation, Heimann Sensor has become a trustworthy partner for companies and research institutions worldwide. Founded 22 years ago, with the first employees already having many years of experience in infrared sensor technology, a basis was established that served to continually develop new products and set technological world records in the years to follow. Thus, Heimann Sensor is a pioneer in sensor technology in accordance to its motto “We love INfraNOVATIONS”.
Like the year before, again this year some of our colleagues and even their offspring attended the 5km run in Dresden in June. Some came as fans and the eight you can see on the picture crossed the finish line together. Congratulations! It's a wonderful team event and we're already looking forward to next year's repetition.
The Sensor+Test 2024 fair was once again a meeting place for the European sensor community. We had many interesting discussions with suppliers and old and potentially new customers, particpated in a lot of meetings - all in a short time and in one place. Thanks to a wonderful team from Heimann Sensor (from left to right: Dr. Wilhelm Leneke, Mischa Schulze, Dr. Jörg Schieferdecker, Dr. Victor Bechthold, Dr. Marion Simon, Michael Schnorr, Christoph Kohlmann, Alexander Rehmer, guest) our participation at the Sensor+Test 2024 was a success.
Meet us in Hall 1 Booth 436
Visit us at the Boston Electronics Booth 612 from 21 April– 25 April 2024
Heimann Sensor's non-contact sensors for remote temperature measurements are used for the monitoring of tires of racing motorcycles and racing cars. We thank our customer and partner Nigtecnologias, located in Argentina, for this great cooperation. ( https://www.instagram.com/nigtecnologiasoficial/ ) The information about the actual temperature is important to control grip and degradation of the race tires. Our integrated sensor features a fast response with high accuracy. If you are interested in further information, have a look at our Thermopile Modules (HIM Series) .
