The NirONE sensor: world's smartest, most agile materials-scanning
tools bring powerful spectroscopic technology to within everyone's
reach
Optimized for high-volume production
of consumer applications and handheld material analyzing devices
and perfect for a wide range of applications, the
NirONE Sensor, imaging in the true infra-red range,
is one of the smallest NIR spectrometers available on the market
today.
A
handful of powerful capability at an affordable cost
Boasting a range of firsts, including Intelligent Cloud connectivity
via your mobile phone for fast analysis on the Cloud, the NirONE
sensor family of products provides true infra-red, smart micro-spectrometers
for use in handheld and inline applications. Optimised for consumer
or prosumer applications, single connection plug-and-play makes
connection to PC via USB seamless and easy-to-use both for consumer
use or for integration by OEMs.
Or, add a battery and bluetooth board;
put it in your pocket and take it with you on the road.
Why a NirONE sensor
might be the perfect solution for your application
Its size and portability
One of the world's smallest sensors, NirONE's tiny size is valuable
especially when designing personalised, oddly-shaped portable materials-sensing
products or process applications and where many other NIR measurement
technologies are simply too big to be practical. Carry its 15 grams
with you, in your palm.
Its price
Responding to the market need for a low-cost product, NirONE sensors'
design is based on a single photodetector making their production
much cheaper than traditional linear array spectrometers. This design
aspect, together with their capacity for mass production, makes
this sensor a perfect choice for an emerging, high-volume consumer
market.
Its efficiency
NirONE sensors image at the true NIR spectral range of 1100 - 2450
nm providing better sensitivity and specificity in a number of materials-sensing
applications. Also, high optical throughput is achieved via the
single detector which collects light much more efficiently than
does the more commonly-used linear array technology. This in turn,
enables a very high signal-to-noise ratio, typically 2-3 times higher
than more expensive spectrometers. Being fully-programmable, the
NirONE sensor's performance can be optimised to suit a particular
application.
Its durability and robustness
Problems related to temperature variations, vibration or
mechanical shocks are minimised due to NirONE's lack of moving parts.
Fast and accurate measurements in even the most demanding indoor
and outdoor applications are enabled by Spectral Engine's patented
technology. The life of a NirONE sensor has been estimated to be
more than 10 years while the estimated life of its light source
is more than 40 000 hours.
Its modularity
Of particular benefit to OEMs is the ability to evaluate and integrate
various material sensing devices into one system easily. The NirONE
sensor combines its numerous features into a compact module making
the task of fitting it into most designs simpler and quicker. The
simple integration of optics, mechanics, electronics and software
into a single NIROne device significantly reduces development costs
and time-to-market.
Its portability and connectivity
Portability and connectivity, combined with an affordable price
point, expand the opportunities for NIR spectroscopy in out-of-lab
applications for a range of industries including, counterfeit detection
in pharmaceuticals and food processing, fast narcotics screening
of street samples, raw material identification, agricultural applications
such as soil analysis or early disease detection, contaminant detection
for food safety and more ......
