At least 320 X 240 pixels of InGaAs photodiodes in the focal plane array; 2.) The square pixel pitch must have a value between 25 micrometers and 50 micrometers; 3.) The camera must have spectral response from 900 nm to 1700 nm; 4.) Quantum efficiency must be greater than 60 percent from 1000 nm to 1600 nm; 5.) The Noise Equivalent Irradiance (NEI) at the peak of response curve must be less than or equal to 300 million photons per square centimeter per second (ph/cm2/s). 6.) Dynamic range must be greater than or equal to 1000:1; 7.) The spatial uniformity must be such that greater than 99 percent of the pixels must have responsivity within 30 percent of the mean value; 8.) Integration times must be variable in a minimum of 8 steps covering a minimum range of 0.130 ms to 16 ms; 9.) Frame rate of 30 Hz, 60 Hz, or both; 10.) Must enable scans to be externally triggered as an alternative to continuous internal triggering; 11.) Must include 12 bit digital output; 12.) Analog output must be compatible with composite video; 13.) Must not require the use of any liquids or fluids for cooling or otherwise operating the camera; 14.)
