Chemical analysis with RGB on the
go
The NIRONE Sensor X is a spectral sensor that measures the NIR spectrum
from 1550nm to 1950nm and incorporates a second RGB sensor for colour.
The combination of wavelength with colour sensing is the first of
its kind and enables far more intelligent sensing applications than
previously possible.
Developed to focus on the low-cost-high-volume consumer and hand-held
market, these sensors are easy to fit, are pre-calibrated and can
be used out-of-the-box.
Compact and robust, the sensors' integrated microcontroller and
single connector make it easy to build into any design and are sufficiently
rugged to be taken into the field for hand-held material analysing
applications. The sensor's stable and intelligent algorithms enable
it use in the most demanding applications.
NIRONE Sensor X Evaluation Kit
Using a USB interface and PC software, the NIRONE Sensor
X Evaluation Kit provides a quick and simple applications-testing
method.
NIRONE Sensor X Developer Kit
Bundled with the Developer Kit are three sensors and three
USB boards. The accompanying
manual clearly describes the sensor-integration process.
