Ocean Optics - Inventor of the World's First Miniature Spectrometer
|

In 1989, we revolutionized the
optical sensing industry when we introduced the first-ever modular,
miniature spectrometer. Now, with over 100,000 spectrometers
sold and the experience of thousands of applications, we’ve
kick-started the market again with SpectraSuite, the first modular,
OS-independent spectroscopy software platform.Spectroscopy on Any Operating System
SpectraSuite is a modular, Java-based
spectroscopy software platform that operates on Windows, Macintosh and
Linux operating systems. The software can control any Ocean Optics USB
spectrometer and device, as well as any other manufacturer’s USB
instrumentation (using the appropriate drivers). The SpectraSuite
interface looks and feels the same on all operating systems yet retains
the familiar appearance of an application native to each OS. Ocean Optics
is the first to offer such a flexible, feature-packed application with
this level of cross-platform capability.
NOTE: SpectraSuite for Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
and Windows 64-bit operating
systems is currently in beta. To get more information, please contact an
Ocean Optics technical support representative.
Our Platform for the Future
SpectraSuite is the platform for all future Ocean Optics
application software development. Current software applications
including OOIChem, OOIColor and OOIIrrad-C have been migrated to the
SpectraSuite platform, with applications such as OOISensors and OOILIBS
coming in the near future in the near future.
Ultimate USB Spectrometer & Device Control
|
SpectraSuite easily manages multiple USB spectrometers –
each with different acquisition parameters – in multiple windows, and
provides graphical and numeric representation of spectra from each
spectrometer. Using SpectraSuite, you can combine data from multiple
sources for applications that include upwelling/downwelling measurements,
dual-beam referencing and process monitoring. |

Modular Framework
The SpectraSuite framework is modular.
Among the modules that have been released to date are the core files,
Absolute Irradiance, and Strip Charts. You or your Ocean Optics application developer can
customize SpectraSuite through Java code.
Advanced Data Capture Control
SpectraSuite provides the user with advanced control of
episodic data capture attributes. For instance, a user can acquire data
for a fixed number of scans or for a specific interval. Initiation of each
scan can be externally triggered or event-driven. Captured data is quickly
stored into system memory at speeds as fast as 1 scan per millisecond,
with speeds limited by hardware performance.
