STRATIO Introduces Its First Ge-Based SWIR SDK, Opening New Possibilities for Agriculture and Beyond
Deep-tech company STRATIO, headquartered between Silicon Valley and Seoul, has officially launched the LS SWIR SDK, the world’s first short-wave infrared (SWIR) software development kit built on a Germanium-based sensor. The launch marks a significant advancement in spectral imaging, making previously invisible information accessible across multiple industries — with agriculture positioned as one of the primary beneficiaries.
The SDK is designed to support STRATIO’s broader mission to “Advance Vision with Infrared-AI™,” offering users an all-in-one device that captures, interprets, and analyzes infrared data without the need for laboratory equipment.
Infrared-AI™ Brings New Capabilities to Agricultural Analysis
While STRATIO’s technology addresses multiple sectors, the company notes that agriculture stands to gain significantly from real-time, field-ready infrared sensing. The LS SWIR SDK enables users to analyze biological and environmental signals not visible to the human eye, supporting:
