SpectraSuite

SpectraSuite allowed users to control multiple USB spectrometers simultaneously within the same application. It could display data from each device on a single graph or in separate windows, which was useful for dual-beam referencing, process monitoring, and other advanced setups.

The software's "Scope mode" provided a live view of the spectrum, allowing users to see changes in real-time as the experimental conditions changed.

Users could adjust several parameters to control the quality and appearance of their spectral data.

This feature controls the period over which light is collected, affecting the overall signal intensity.

By averaging multiple acquisitions, this reduces noise and improves the signal-to-noise ratio.

This spatial averaging technique smooths the spectral data by averaging adjacent data points, which can also reduce noise.

SpectraSuite offered multiple ways to view the data. The "Graph view" provided the standard visual representation of a spectrum, while the "Table view" displayed the underlying numeric data.

For applications involving color science, SpectraSuite could calculate color parameters like CIE illuminants, Color Rendering Index (CRI), and other metrics.

The Java-based framework was built with a modular design, meaning different functions for acquisition, processing, and display were separate modules. This allowed for custom extensions and scripting for automated experiments.
