Spectral sensitivity describes how sensitive a camera is to each wavelength in the visible spectrum. It is one of the essential camera performance indicators to measure as it provides insight into how the camera will react when capturing images at various light levels.
Camera systems react differently depending on the light. This reaction is known as the spectral response of the camera. Measuring the spectral sensitivity will provide a definitive idea of the various spectral responses to different light spectra.
A monochromator is the standard method for measuring spectral sensitivity. In our iQ-Lab, we use a variety of advanced solutions, such as the iQ-LED-powered LE7 lightbox and camSPECS plate. iQ-LED technology can generate custom spectra and test in the infrared range.

LE7
Uniform light source
Our uniform lightbox is ideal for transparent test chart illumination. It is powered by iQ-LED technology, which allows you to generate custom spectra. This technology is suitable for creating low-light test scenarios, a primary KPI for security camera testing. In addition, we offer the LE7-IR version for infrared camera testing.

camSPECS plate
Our camSPECS device mounts all interference filters onto one plane, allowing it to make more efficient spectral sensitivity measurements. The camSPECS plate uses the same front plate as the camSPECS but can now be combined with the LE7 lightbox for further illumination possibilities.

camSPECS Software
Evalution software
The camSPECS evaluation software calculates the spectral sensitivity with the images and the calibration data of the filters as a direct measurement (similar to a monochromator).
