WIDEFIELD HYPERSPECTRAL CAMERA V-EOSTM

Giving complete information on your target with full resolution images at any wavelength, Photon etc’s Hyperspectral Imager will change your view of spectral analysis.

Thanks to a unique and patented design based on volume Bragg gratings, the Hyperspectral Imager delivers a series of monochromatic images at user-specified wavelengths. This optimized hyperspectral cube allows for spectral analysis of each and every pixel of a full resolution image, meaning no more fastidious x-y scanning of the samples, or limiting exposure time of remote sensing acquisition. Resulting in more than just an increase in efficiency, the Hyperspectral Imager provides data on both spectral and spatial content, allowing you to perform new analyses and push the boundaries of your most demanding applications. With narrow resolutions and an operating range of 400 nm to 2.3 µm, our Hyperspectral Imager will boost the power of your Raman imaging, vegetation cover monitoring, or faint galaxy observation. First developed for faint object observation in astronomy, this hyperspectral imaging technology has been expanded for use in a large number of applications, where it has introduced new possibilities for measurement and analysis.
