Mjolnir S-620

Shortwave Infrared Hyperspectral — 970 to 2,500 nm, Cooled Detector

The Mjolnir S-620 is the SWIR member of the Mjolnir series. Like its VNIR sibling, it combines a small form factor and low mass with high-performance specifications and scientific-grade data quality — opening the shortwave infrared (970–2500 nm) for mineralogy, moisture, and material identification from a UAV.

Why It Performs

The Chemistry of the Scene

Cooled SWIR sensing reveals mineral, moisture, and material signatures the visible spectrum can't — at scientific-grade quality.

Shortwave Infrared 970–2500 nm

The SWIR range unlocks mineralogy, moisture, and chemical signatures that are invisible to VNIR sensors — ideal for exploration and material ID.

Cooled MCT Detector

A cooled detector drives a peak SNR over 2000 and a 16-bit dynamic range — clean spectra even in low-signal SWIR bands.

Scientific-Grade SWIR

620 spatial pixels and 300 spectral channels at 5.1 nm sampling through an f/1.9 spectrograph — precise, repeatable data.

Lightweight Mjolnir Form Factor

Under 4.5 kg and under 50 W in the same compact body as the rest of the series — UAV, gimbal, or tripod deployable.
