Breakthrough 12-micron uncooled pixel technology dramatically reduces size and cost of thermal imaging systems.
Further advancing the technology developed for the 17-micron MIR640 thermal camera core, the TWV640 module is optimized to provide affordable thermal imaging performance in a compact, low-power solution. Our TWV640 camera core captures images through fog, smoke, dust, and haze at 60Hz. The camera core’s high speed video capture allows users to observe dynamic environments revealing details that competitors’ 30Hz offerings miss, while also eliminating the disorientation that comes from using slower video.
Compatible with off-the-shelf lenses from leading optics providers and using standard interface protocols like USB, NTSC and CameraLink, the TWV640 module is a drop-in 640x480 thermal camera core designed for makers of commercial, civil and military thermal imaging solutions. It is well-suited for a wide range of thermal vision system applications including day/night security cameras, firefighting vision systems, process monitoring, handheld targeting systems, automotive cameras, and thermography systems.

I think that's POET IR,using the POET platform.
The POET IR device addresses the need of military and industrial clients for uncooled mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) sensors and cameras – for perimeter security, thermography, medical imaging, automotive forward sensors, and smartphone input applications. It has potential advantages over competitive devices in three aspects:
