Portable Multispectral Imaging Tools

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Spectricity Has Introduced the S1-A Accessory Device

— January 6, 2025 — Tech
Spectricity's S1-A Accessory Device is a portable multispectral imaging tool designed to integrate seamlessly with mobile platforms. This device, which features a 15-channel spectral sensor, provides new possibilities for industries such as personalized skincare, material analysis, food inspection, and color correction. Its plug-and-play design allows straightforward USB connection with Android devices — iOS compatibility is in the works.

One of the most notable aspects of the S1-A is its combination of high-resolution RGB and multispectral imaging capabilities. This works to enable detailed analysis of various materials or biological features. The intuitive app interface simplifies the imaging tool's operations — from previewing and capturing frames to managing image data. The compact design, on the other hand, ensures easy portability.
