This movie made by Martin Dohrn of Ammonite Films was shot using a Thermoteknix MicroCAM 1024HD High Definition Thermal Imager. Ammonite is an independent film production company making high definition films about science and natural history.
Ammonite previously used Thermoteknix MIRICLE Thermal Imaging Cameras to make Night of the Lion and the subsequent series of Nightstalkers which aired on Nat Geo TV.
MicroCAM 1024HD uses the very latest 1024×768 17um uncooled LWIR sensor technology for stunning high definition images. Conventional TV resolution 640×480 devices traditionally used analogue video standards such as NTSC or PAL to transfer images to the display device. With the advent of high definition sensors, digital interfaces are now expected to provide substantially higher quality display capabilities. MicroCAM 1024HD uses GigE Vision to transfer raw sensor data to the host computer where image and graphic processing takes place.
