Westboro Photonics Conoscopic Lens Accessory for WP512 & WP525 Imaging Colorimeters
The Westboro Photonics conoscopic lens accessory uses Fourier optics to enable luminance and chromaticity measurements of flat panel displays out to +/-80 degrees from normal (160 degrees full angle). The conoscopic lens accessory can be fitted to the WP512 and WP525 series of imaging colorimeters or imaging spectral colorimeters. Please note that this lens is distinct from the Westboro Conometer 80 which is a dedicated imaging photometer configured for display view angle measurements.
With the conoscopic lens attached, the calibrated colorimeter system provides accurate and reliable measurements of many parameters as a function of viewing angle including luminance, chromaticity, contrast, gamma and gamma inversion, and more.
AR/VR Display Testing
With an optional 2mm entrance pupil adapter, the conoscopic lens provides a 160° horizontal and 160° vertical measurement field of view of near-to-eye displays (NEDs).
Key Features
- ± 80° (160° total) measurement field of view
- 0.001 cd/m2 sensitivity
- Faster than goniometric measurements
- Spectroradiometer integration (optional)
Compatible Colorimeters
The conoscopic lens accessory is compatible with the following Westboro Photonics instruments:
- WP512 imaging spectral RGB colorimeter
- WP525 imaging spectral tristimulus colorimeter
Please note that we also offer an imaging photometer that is dedicated to display view angle measurements – the Conometer 80.
An imaging colorimeter is a powerful camera-based instrument that provides for vastly increased productivity compared with ‘spot’ luminance meters. Imaging photometers and colorimeters find application with automotive and avionics displays and controls, vehicle lighting, near-to-eye displays, flat panel displays, lit area uniformity of lighting products and with projected beam pattern analysis of lamps and LEDs. An imaging colorimeter equipped with a conoscopic lens can be used to test the view angle of the following products:
- Automotive Displays
- Avionics Displays
- Flat Panel Displays – Computers, TVs, Tablets, Smart Phones & Consumer Electronics
- Near-to-Eye Displays (AR/VR)
