UV (Ultraviolet) – type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than visible light but longer than x-rays.
RGB – (Red, Green, Blue) – the primary colors of light used in various digital displays and imaging technologies. Colors are created by combining different intensities of these three colors.
VNIR (Visible Near Infrared) – a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that includes both visible light and near-infrared radiation. VNIR typically spans wavelengths from about 400 nm(nanometers) to 1000 nm.
SWIR (Short Wave Infrared) – a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that includes both visible light and near-infrared radiation. SWIR typically spans wavelengths from about 1000 nm(nanometers) to 2500 nm.
MWIR (Mid Wave Infrared) – a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that includes both visible light and near-infrared radiation. MWIR typically spans wavelengths from about 3000 nm(nanometers) to 8000 nm.
LWIR (Long Wave Infrared) – a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that includes both visible light and near-infrared radiation. LWIR typically spans wavelengths from about 8000 nm(nanometers) to 15 000 nm.
