Aspen is the newest in design innovation from Apogee Imaging Systems. Aspen increases cooling performance in a smaller package, improves stray light baffling, adds a Network interface with a built-in web server, supports dual output CCDs up to 16Mhz and sets a new standard in shutter reliability. The Aspen CG16050 has a 16-megapixel interline transfer sensor with high quantum efficiency. The camera is available with a monochrome sensor (CG16050) or color (CG16050C) sensor with either a Bayer mosaic or Truesense Color Fill Pattern. All Aspen systems are backed by a 2 year warranty on the camera and lifetime warranty on the CCD chamber integrity.
