Global Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) Market

Market Overview:
The Global Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) Market was valued at USD 815.32 million in 2016 and is projected to reach USD 1592.19 million by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 7.72% from 2017 to 2025.

Short-wave infrared (SWIR) light is typically defined as light in the 0.9 - 1.7μm wavelength range, but can also be classified from 0.7 - 2.5μm. SWIR technology is used in a variety of applications including electronic board inspection, solar cell inspection, produce inspection, identifying and sorting, surveillance, anti-counterfeiting, process quality control. Benefits of SWIR includes high sensitivity, high resolution, seeing in the light of night glow or night sky radiance, day-to-night imaging, covert illumination, able to see covert lasers and beacons, no cryogenic cooling required, conventional, low-cost visible spectrum lenses, small size, and low power.
