What is it about?
We can sense less than 6 photons per pixel, at 600 frames per second in the short-wave infrared SWIR band and without cryogenic cooling. This is about 5 times more sensitive than the best existing SWIR camera.

Why is it important?
Our new sensing method is scalable to multi-megapixel cameras and provides a practical path toward single-photon detection and imaging near room temperature.
