HySpex Products

Hyperspectral Cameras HySpex, NEO's line of hyperspectral cameras, aims to offer compact, high performance and versatile instruments for a multitude of applications, ranging from airborne to laboratory and industrial use of imaging spectroscopy.

The line of HySpex cameras comprises VNIR models, operating in the range 400 to 1000 nm, and SWIR models operating in the range 900 to 2500 nm.

The HySpex cameras are based on know-how acquired by NEO since 1995 through several R&D projects (initially defence and space applications) in the field of imaging spectrometry. Today, NEO continues research and product development in close collaboration with companies and research institutes utilising the HySpex cameras in a wide range of applications.
