ASD FieldSpec 4 Vis-NIR Spectroradiometer

The Fieldspec 4 is a fast, precise and truly field-portable spectroradiometer designed by researchers, for researchers to perform solar spectral reflectance, radiance, and irradiance measurements.

4300 Handheld FTIR Spectrometer

The 4300 Handheld FTIR Spectrometer is a lightweight, ergonomic
spectrometer, which enables the direct identification and assessment of high-value
materials without sample extraction

Key Applications

• Characterisation of organic and inorganic materials in pigments and binders on manuscripts, paintings and historical artefacts
• Analysis of molecular vibrational overtones characteristic of functional groups (e.g. hydroxyls, carbonates, and the methylenic and amide groups) associated with certain paint/pigment binders
• Safe identification and assessment of high-value materials in situ, without moving, disturbing or even contacting the material
• Analysis and testing of degrading plastic/polymeric materials in order to assign correct restoration processes

MV.Scan Hyperspectral Imaging System

The MV.Scan Hyperspectral Imaging System from Headwall is a complete, ready-to-use solution for high-performance hyperspectral imaging across the VNIR, NIR, and SWIR spectral ranges.
