How would you define the ideal hyperspectral imager? you would agree that it shall acquire all spectral images instantly and at video rates and display all of them, together with the result of their analysis, i.e., spectral classification maps, in real-time!
Pushing the limits of what is possible in imaging science, Spectricon made this happen! MUSES9-SnS is the world’s first hyperspectral imager acquiring hypercube image packs at video rate and displaying both spectral images and classification maps side-by side and in real-time.
There is no tradeoff between spectral and spatial resolution, with the later reaching 4K levels!

MUSES9-MS spectral camera addresses the need for combining spectral information from UV-VIS-NIR-SWIR, as a means for advancing the imaging and analytical capabilities of spectral imaging. Spectral imaging in this ultrawide spectral range has been proved to be very informative in a broad range of applications. Satellite cameras (AVIRIS, SENTINEL I & II) is a typical example of spectral imagers covering such a broad spectral range, with certain imaging bands being dedicated to specific identification/quantification targets.
Unlike satellite imaging, commercial spectral cameras are dedicated to operate within certain fractions of the 365-1700nm range, due to the restricted spectral sensitivity range of the available imaging sensor chips. This implies that more than one spectral imager is required if one wants to cover this wavelength range. However, this option is very costly, is of high volume and weight and the direct comparison of the spectral imaging data is far from being a straightforward process.
MUSES9-MS is an all in one spectral camera operating in the 365-1700nm spectral range. It effectively addresses the demand for an integrated, low cost, volume and weight, enabling the direct comparative analysis of the acquired, information-rich dataset.
MUSES9-HS is a full frame, tunable filter-based hyperspectral imager, offering incomparable light throughput (94%) and tuning range (370-1000nm). Within a few dozen of seconds, MUSES9-HS automatically acquires a hypercube image stack comprising up to 126 (extendable to 315) sharply focused, 6.4-megapixel spectral images, collectively containing 6.4 million spectra.
The full-frame, tunable filter operation is clearly advantageous over line scanning or push broom traditional technologies, especially when examining static, two dimensional scenes. This is because bulky mechanical scanners are no longer required, to the benefit of portability, set up simplicity, versatility and direct adaptability to all kinds of lenses, microscopes and telescopes.
