Seeing only three colors with the conventional Medical “Scopes”, i.e. Dermoscopes, Endoscopes and Clinical Microscopes, is not enough! Human tissues are complex structures and quite often different abnormalities are perceived with similar hues, leading to inconclusive examinations. ​

Traditional Medical “Scopes” (Dermoscopes, Endoscopes, Clinical Microscopes) are simple color camera-based magnifying lens systems. Their most advanced versions integrate digital imaging technologies, offering several advantages in documentation and communication. ​

Significant diagnostic information can be gained, in vivo, with multichannel imaging, spanning both the visible and the invisible portions of the optical spectrum. Spectral Imaging emerges as the technology of choice for improving the accuracy of in vivo diagnosis, limiting the need of invasive biopsies. However, conventional scanning spectral imaging technologies are far from being clinically implementable, as they cannot provide real-time imaging, a key requirement in clinical inspections.

QCELL’s PhenoCheck camera is a battery operated, wearable/handheld, macro-imaging system for the in situ monitoring of crops. It is a powerful tool for analyzing plants, fruits, flowers, seeds etc., offering objective and quantitative information for assessing and monitoring their condition.​

The PhenoCheck camera displays, in real time, vegetation index and spectral maps in both reflectance and fluorescence imaging modes. The camera integrates a proprietary dome illumination module for isolating ambient light and for ensuring glare-free imaging.​

Spectral phenotype mapping informs about the presence of pathogens, viruses, pests, water and nutrient stress. It also offers an objective means for the assessment of fruit ripening, for predicting the optimal harvest time. By integrating all these unique features, PhenoCheck comprises a valuable tool for controlling and optimizing farming, towards reducing the use of fertilizers, pesticides and water.

Turbid waters often restrict underwater visibility to less than 1m, posing a natural obstacle for the inspection of manmade or natural subaqueous objects. QCELL brings the Spectral Vision technology to address one of the most challenging and high-impact problems in maritime operations: Clear imaging in turbid waters.​

​SpectralSea is a video rate spectral imager offering a physics-based primary enhancement of the underwater visibility, which is complemented with advanced, real-time algorithms recognizing and deconvolving the scattering components. The SpectralSea camera comes with a 200 m (or shorter) cable for both, data and power transmission. It can be loaded on Autonomous (uncrewed) Underwater Vehicles (AUV) or Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV), transferring, at a video rate, spectral images and spectral maps to a host computer, installed in remote locations.
