Measurement of Light and the Optical Properties of Materials

SphereOptics provides a solution for almost any application in measuring the colour and brightness of light sources and displays. From a simple, inexpensive lux meter, to the world’s most advanced imaging photometers, we have a light meter that you can rely upon to give you accurate, repeatable data. Our repertoire includes instruments that measure the amount of light (radiometers, photometers, spectroradiometers), the colour of light (colorimeters), the temporal behaviour of the light source (flicker photometers), the angular distribution of light (goniophotometers) as well as the 2D spatial distribution of light (imaging photometers & colorimeters).

We also supply reflectance standards and targets as well as reference light sources to calibrate your instrument. SphereOptics also specialises in supplying instruments that measure the optical properties of materials, including reflectance, transmittance, optical flatness, solar absorptance, emittance, and BRDF/BTDF scatter. Last but by no means least, we supply calibration light sources and uniform light sources for testing image sensors, remote sensing systems and cameras.
