SOLAR BLIND IMAGING

There is provided a system for imaging of a scene, comprising: at least one short wave infrared (SWIR) illumination element that generates SWIR illumination at a SWIR wavelength range, at least one filter that filters out electromagnetic radiation at wavelengths which are mostly non-absorbed by water vapor in air depicted in the scene, and at least one SWIR sensor that captures the SWIR illumination of the SWIR wavelength range which is passed by the at least one filter and generates at least one SWIR image of the scene.
