Spectral Scanner

Box

Overview

Spectral Scanner software is used for spectral imaging and it is Windows compatible.
Spectral Scanner scans the object line by line, so in every photogram columns there is the spectral distributions of every point of the line.
The monochromator Imspector is the most important details of the scanner; it's joined to a b/w camera different for every specific use. Spectral Scanner software is very useful for spectral imaging application for research and development cause it contains various calculations tools.

Reflectance, Transmittance, Absorbance

Sample absolute reflectance is required in most of spectral imaging applications, like colour measurement; spectral scanner calculates this reflectance of every pixel by taken off a value on a white reference. Once the image is scanned it is possible to have all the pixel spectral information, the colorimetric parameters and data save and storing by an easy click on the image on the monitor. Software filter allows a band by band image analysis (until 2 nm) and at the same time spectral scanner calculates a transmittance image.

Colour differences and equality

Spectral scanner makes absolute and relatives colour measurements using standard colorimetric coordinates CIE L*a*b*. These parameters, with DE parameter, can be considered for each pixel, for an image portion or for the whole image. It's possible to select standard CIE 1931 or CIE 1964 with illumination D65 or A. Also it's possible to select each wavelength and visualize on the monitor the new image filtered reconstructed.

Data exportation

All reflectance data and colorimetric value can be easily exported and elaborated with a lot of mathematic calculation programs.

Microcolor

Overview

Microcolor is the software for color measurements developed by DV.
Absolute spectral intensities can be acquired from the sample, in dependence to the application type and to the spectrometric system in use.Once the white and black spectra are acquired, to obtain the spectral reference of the illuminant and to subtract the electronic noise respectively, the reflectance (transmittance) or absorbance of the sample can be calculated, as well as the CIE L*a*b* and xyz color coordinates.
For advanced colorimetric applications is possible to acquire a standard gray reference also.
Multiple and continuous acquisition are possible. The acquisition time and the number of readouts can be adjusted in order to match with the optimal number of counts.
The data can be easily processed through any database program, thus offering an efficient tool for classification.
