Digital Spectroscope

Spectroscope with built-in video camera

Are you still teaching spectroscopy with tools from the last century?

Throw away those rainbow glasses, sheets of diffraction foil, and yard sticks! Now you and your students can view live spectra on a PC.

You can easily demonstrate gas-tube spectra on an overhead monitor. Or, do hands-on activities with your lab’s computers.

With our turn-key system, you get everything you need. Simply plug our tripod-mounted spectroscope into your computer’s USB port, switch on your gas tube, and immediately explore different spectra.

Clearly see the emission lines of Hydrogen, Helium, Neon, etc. Compare spectra of different elements. The system’s live, color video of the gas tube spectrum helps keep students engaged. And you’ll have a tool to help them easily understand key concepts.

The digital spectroscope camera is simple to setup and easy to use. Position it on your lab table one or two meters from your light source. There’s no fine-tuning or adjustment necessary. The internal video camera auto-focuses and adjusts for your current light conditions. The system works with any Windows computer (XP or more recent).

Our software displays colorful spectra and their intensity graphs in real time. Designed for educators as well as researchers, the software is both easy to use and fully customizable for your needs.

Finally, there’s a tool to help you effectively teach gas tube and flame spectrum concepts to your physics and chemistry students!
