PRESS RELEASE
MÉRIGNAC, FRANCE – NOVEMBER, 17^th 2025

Exosens announces the launch of the iLumos RED 5G camera, combining its new 5G image intensifier with advanced CMOS technology to deliver unmatched performance in night-vision imaging.
Featuring a high-resolution sensor, the iLumos RED 5G camera offers exceptional efficiency and image precision in all lighting conditions.
Specifically designed for Defense, Surveillance, and Homeland Security applications, the iLumos RED 5G delivers outstanding detection, recognition, and identification performance with easy system integration.

Exosens, a high-tech company focused on providing mission and performance-critical amplification, detection and imaging technology, announces the launch of the iLumos RED 5G camera, a next-generation intensified-CMOS camera that sets a new benchmark for night vision performance.

Building on the proven legacy of the renowned iNocturn platform, the iLumos RED 5G camera represents the next evolution in intensified imaging, integrating Exosens’ recently launched 5G image intensifier tube. This combination delivers a significant leap forward in sensitivity, high resolution, and dynamic range, offering outstanding image quality in the darkest environments.

Engineered for demanding defense, surveillance, and homeland security applications, the iLumos RED 5G camera achieves unmatched DRI (Detection, Recognition, Identification) capabilities - enabling detection, recognition, and clear identification, depending on scene conditions and optics. Its advanced on-board image processing, including adaptive denoising and discintillation algorithms, ensures sharp and stable imagery across rapidly changing light levels. Featuring high-resolution 2048×2048 pixels, a standard C-mount lens interface, and versatile 16-bit video outputs including DV, CL, UVC, MIPI, and SDI, the iLumos RED 5G combines imaging precision with seamless integration. With a low power consumption of just 3.3 W, it’s optimized for efficient, high-performance deployment.

“With the iLumos RED 5G camera, we’ve reached a new milestone in intensified-CMOS imaging,” said Paul Ryckaert, Executive GM of Exosens’ Advanced Imaging business unit. “By combining our 5G tube technology with next-generation CMOS sensors, we offer system integrators an exceptional balance of performance, compactness, and energy efficiency.”

Backed by decades of expertise in intensified imaging, and trusted worldwide for its field-proven intensified cameras used in defense and security systems, Exosens continues to drive innovation in night vision technology. Manufactured and designed entirely in the European Union and a commitment to quality and reliability, the iLumos RED 5G establishes a new reference point for high-performance, low-light imaging solutions.
