SpectroCam from Ocean Thin Film is first fully configurable MSI camera

The SpectroCam™ Multispectral Imaging (MSI) Camera from Ocean Thin Films (OTF) is now available with powerful analysis software that allows the user to perform dozens of image processing functions and view the results on a live action image output. Applications include water quality measurements, product screening, machine vision, medical imaging, surveillance and authentication.

SpectroCam from Ocean Thin Film is the first fully configurable MSI camera

SpectroCam is the world’s first fully configurable MSI camera. Its wideband imaging sensor is responsive from the visible through near infrared spectrum. Precision filters and imaging optics can be customized for a variety of applications with image speeds of up to 30 fps at full resolution. Images from the eight different filters can be acquired and saved at a rate of three full image stacks per second. The optical filters are easily changed in the field and can be constructed to end users’ desired specifications including narrow bandpasses, wide bandpasses and edge filters. By selecting discrete filters in and around spectral areas with the most significant differences, SpectroCam creates images that show vivid contrast not detectable with the human eye.

The new SpectroCam analysis software has a simple, intuitive, graphical interface that allows users to quickly perform a host of image processing and analysis functions. Results can be viewed as live image output or saved to a variety of image file formats. The software processing is a powerful tool for fully extracting MSI information and can even create colorized NIR images. In addition, the analysis portion of the software provides live, quantitative information regarding image intensity as a function of spectral wavelength for a user defined image area or image cross section.

The standard F-Mount lens configuration accommodates a range of lens choices, focal lengths and fields of view. The SpectroCam can also be easily mounted to a variety of imaging equipment including microscopes and endoscopes. The new image processing software allows users to perform dozens of calculations, manipulations and measurements of live images to further enhance the MSI results.

SpectroCam makes multispectral imaging accessible to everybody from university researchers to high volume OEM equipment makers. The interchangeable optical filters and continuously rotating filter wheel overcome many of the shortcomings that prismatic and tuneable filter MSI systems face. With interchangeable filters, users can try many filter options to narrow in on the best contrast, greatly reducing development time and allowing users to bring products to market faster.

Ricochet, the wireless mesh network technology from leading security product manufacturer Texecom Ltd., is more reliable, easier to install and more adaptable than any comparable system. The new Premier 24 Ricochet Kit provides in one package all the components necessary for a superior wireless-enabled security system for smaller commercial and premium residential projects.

Texecom’s Premier 24 Ricochet Kit Brings Superior Wireless Security to Smaller Premises

The Ricochet technology enables devices to communicate not only directly with the control panel, but also to route their communications through any other nearby Ricochet devices. This means that not only is the range of the system greatly extended, but the signal strength is kept to an optimum level by automatically using the strongest signal path. The system will even ‘self-heal’ if a particular signal route becomes weak or blocked, rerouting the communication channel through other devices to bypass the interference and maintain system integrity. This level of wireless security system has previously only been viable for large commercial installations; now Texecom is bringing its benefits to a much greater range of customers.

The kit contains a Premier 24 control panel and Premier 8XP-W wireless Ricochet-enabled 8 zone expander, 3 wireless Prestige XT-W PIRs, one Impaq Contact-W wireless magnetic contact, a Premier LCDP Keypad and a Premier SmartKey. When commissioning a new system this package provides an excellent, easy to install foundation – with many options then available to expand coverage by adding further wired or wireless devices as required for the project.

Texecom is launching the Ricochet Expansion Pack for the easy addition and integration of the company’s award-winning wireless mesh network security devices into any existing security system. The self-repairing, automatically optimising wireless technology has proven successful with Texecom Premier systems, and is now available as an add-on to other installations.

Easily Add Ricochet Wireless Devices to Any Security System with Texecom’s New Expansion Pack

The Ricochet Expansion Pack includes an 8 zone wireless expander and a wireless interface card so that up to 8 Ricochet wireless devices can be connected to any security system via voltage-free, relay-driven wired outputs. This enables all installations to take advantage of Texecom’s range of Ricochet shock, contact and PIR detectors, offering users a more flexible, stable and reliable wireless intrusion detection option than any other comparable wireless system is able to provide.

Ricochet’s use of mesh network technology means that each device in the system connects not just directly to the control panel, but also to all other devices on the system. The strongest signal path will then be used to connect via any combination of these nodes back to the control panel, ensuring the stability of the system even if conditions change along the direct route. Setup is simple and straightforward, truly taking advantage of the many benefits that wireless technology has long promised the security industry.

Ocean Thin Film’s SpectroCam is first fully configurable MSI camera

The SpectroCam™ Multispectral Imaging (MSI) Camera is now available from Ocean Thin Films (OTF) in a new development platform that combines a scientific-grade CCD array with a precision rotating optical filter wheel to create the world’s first fully configurable MSI camera. Applications include water quality measurements, product screening, machine vision, medical imaging, surveillance and authentication.

SpectroCam complements single-point spectroscopy by adding another dimension to spectral measurements. With a single-point spectrometer, users can analyze spectral differences from sample to sample and then, by selecting discrete filters in and around spectral areas with the most significant differences, use SpectroCam to create an image that shows vivid contrast between the samples.

At the heart of the SpectroCam is a wideband CCD that is responsive from the visible through near infrared spectrum. The system’s precision filter wheel and optics can be customized for a variety of applications. Image speed is 20 fps at full resolution and the standard F-Mount configuration accommodates a range of lens choices, focal lengths and fields of view. Each system includes a lens, eight standard interchangeable filters and software.

OTF collaborated with miniature spectroscopy leader Ocean Optics to create this suite of tools, making multispectral imaging accessible to everybody from university researchers to high volume OEM equipment makers. The interchangeable optical filters and continuously rotating filter wheel overcome many of the shortcomings that prismatic MSI systems face. With interchangeable filters, users can try many filter options to narrow in on the best contrast, greatly reducing development time and allowing users to bring products to market faster.

The new Prestige 360 DT from Texecom is a ceiling mount intruder detector that features both omni-directional quad element PIR and K-band microwave sensing. This gives the detector maximum catch performance and false alarm immunity, even in challenging environments such as partitioned areas, commercial premises and residential housing.

The Prestige 360 DT has a maximum 9.3m diameter detection pattern, which results in over 65m2 of omni-directional coverage under each detector. The product is suitable for mounting up to 3.6m above the ground, and complies with EN50131-2-4 Grade 2 requirements.

Ceiling mount detectors are of particular benefit when protecting areas with ground-based obstructions such as cubicle partitions, shopping aisles and large furniture, or when traditional mounting sites are impractical. The Prestige 360 DT offers full 360° coverage, and the combined dual sensing technology minimises false alarms by processing the signals from both detection methods to confirm an alarm signal.
