ULTRIS X20 Plus Hyperspectral Video Camera

The award-nominated 3D hyperspectral light field cameras ULTRIS 20 and ULTRIS 20 Plus have been upgraded to include a wavelength range of 350-1000nm enabling UV-VIS-NIR coverage.

Building on the success of the ULTRIS 20 and ULTRIS 20 Plus, the ULTRIS X20 expands the wavelength range from 450-850nm to 350- 1000nm, thereby including the UV spectrum and making UV-VIS-NIR coverage possible.

With a constant FWHM of 10nm across all channels, over 160 spectral bands compared to the previous 100 plus, and a native image resolution of 410×410 pixels (combined with the pan sensor on the ULTRIS X20 Plus model over 1800×1800 pixels is possible), the ULTRIS X20 takes hyperspectral imaging to new heights, enabling even more applications.

Drone Integration & Cubert ULTRIS Software

The ULTRIS X20 Plus is compatible with virtually any drone platform and can operate in time-lapse mode or be directly triggered during flight. Mounted to a gimbal with an integrated Windows-based mini-computer running Cubert ULTRIS software, the system records hyperspectral data in real time while embedding precise GPS metadata into every file for accurate georeferencing and aerial mapping workflows.

Cubert ULTRIS software enables complete hyperspectral data processing—from raw data to reflectance and radiance—while supporting hyperspectral video capture up to 8 Hz. Users can process live data streams or recorded image cubes, apply spectral indices such as NDVI and CAI, and run custom plug-ins or real-time classification algorithms. Exported datasets in ENVI, TIFF, or Multi-TIFF formats integrate seamlessly with standard GIS and mapping software, including pansharpening workflows.

CUVIS Software

Built on proprietary light field architecture, this next-generation snapshot hyperspectral camera captures full 3D spectral data cubes instantly — without pushbroom scanning, mechanical movement, or filter shifting. High spatial and spectral resolution combined with consistent FWHM performance delivers clean, quantitative UV–VIS–NIR data ready for real-time analysis. Integrated hyperspectral software enables reflectance and radiance processing, spectral indexing, classification, and export to scientific formats such as ENVI and TIFF, making it an ideal solution for research, industrial inspection, defense, environmental monitoring, and airborne remote sensing applications.
