Headwall Photonics Hyperspec™ family of integrated hyperspectral imaging sensors provide the foundation for utilizing hyperspectral imaging to achieve better spectral sensing and chemical imaging results for a range of mission-critical applications ranging from process monitoring to moving webs of product across conveyor lines to non-invasive medical imaging.
Following up on the success of Headwall’s Hyperspec™ VS15, VS25, and VS50 hyperspectral products, the new Hyperspec-VNIR™ and Hyperspec-NIR™ sensor models deliver on Headwall’s vision of applying hyperspectral imaging capabilities to new markets and applications. By applying our optical engineering and hyperspectral imaging expertise gained through years of experience working with military and defense customers, Headwall’s Hyperspec™ products offer unparalled imaging capabilities for a wide range of application needs for medical, life sciences, and industrial customers.
Both the Hyperspec-VNIR™ and Hyperspec-NIR™ models take advantage of Headwall’s patented hyperspectral technology to generate aberration-corrected images characterized by 1-2 nanometer spectral resolution and unparalleled spatial resolution. These Hyperspec™ products are designed and engineered for application-specific performance and, in addition to fore-optics, include detectors and electronics which have been integrated, aligned, and tested for specific spectral regions and spatial resolution.
In order to achieve high signal-to-noise performance, all Hyperspec-VNIR™ and Hyperspec-NIR™ products utilize Headwall Photonics’ world-renowned “original” holographic gratings which minimize stray light to achieve superior photometric accuracy particularly in dark background applications.
Headwall Photonics’ Hyperspec™ imaging spectrometer platform is built on a totally reflective concentric optical design. These products are based on Headwall’s patented aberration-corrected imaging systems which feature the company’s “original”, high efficiency holographic gratings.
