The sphere design of the system offers exceptional spatial integrating critical for uniform, repeatable and reproducible measurements of directional flashlight sources. An easy access side mount on the sphere makes total spectral flux or forward spectral flux measurements easier for users to complete.

Systems feature the Labsphere CDS-600 Mini CCD Array Spectrometer with low noise and wide dynamic range through the visible spectrum. When integrated with a Labsphere Flashlight Measurement Sphere, the spectrometer and LightMtrX software offer integrated spectral calibration for complete total spectroradiometric, photometric and color metric characterization of flashlights.

FS2 Flashlight Measurement Systems are designed to receive flashlights on an external port of the sphere photometer with the assistance of an external flashlight holder. Coated with Labsphere's Spectraflect® highly diffuse reflectance coating, the sphere design offers exceptional spatial integrating critical for uniform, repeatable and reproducible measurements of these directional sources. With each system, Labsphere offers spectral flux standards for on-site calibration. Use the FS2 for research, development and quality control.

OPERATING SOFTWARE

LightMtrX Spectral Light Measurement Software

LightMtrX Spectral Light Measurement Software (sold separately) is the most intuitive platform for calibrating and analyzing spectral radiometric, photometric and colorimetric properties of flashlights including LED, tungsten, krypto and xenon. The LightMtrX temporal feature allows users to monitor optical and electrical performance versus elapsed operating time. DLL drivers are standard with the LightMtrX platform including examples written for today's most popular programming languages. When users are ready to increase their capacity, the integral design and user graphical interface makes it easy to transition from research to production.
