Overview
MUSES9-MS Multispectral Imaging Camera – Product Overview
The MUSES9-MS is a high-performance multispectral imaging camera developed by Spectricon, engineered to capture spectral data across an exceptionally broad range—from the ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) to the short-wave infrared (SWIR). Designed for applications that demand reliable spectral analysis in both natural and controlled environments, this compact system leverages a dual-sensor architecture, combining silicon (Si) and InGaAs detectors to cover a continuous spectral range from 365 to 1700 nm.
This dual-sensor design allows the MUSES9-MS to detect a wider range of materials and substances than traditional single-sensor multispectral cameras. It features 12 distinct spectral bands, with 6 per sensor, enabling high-resolution multispectral imaging that delivers both qualitative and quantitative spectral insights. Whether you’re identifying crop stress, mapping biological tissues, or assessing the chemical composition of materials, the MUSES9-MS delivers the clarity and accuracy required for mission-critical analysis.
Despite its powerful imaging capabilities, the MUSES9-MS remains lightweight and easy to integrate, with a standard F-mount lens interface that ensures compatibility with a wide range of machine vision optics. Its compact housing is ideal for both fixed installations and mobile or field-deployed setups, including drone integration and lab-based configurations.
To enhance usability, the camera is supplied with a complete software suite, allowing users to control acquisition settings, manage spectral data, and generate real-time classification maps. The software also supports export to common formats and can be integrated into larger imaging systems and machine learning pipelines.
Thanks to its broad spectral sensitivity, precise band separation, and flexible design, the MUSES9-MS is perfectly suited for applications such as:
Precision agriculture – analyzing plant health, water content, and nutrient distribution
Biomedical imaging – non-invasive tissue diagnostics and research
Art and cultural heritage – pigment analysis, restoration planning, and authenticity checks
Environmental monitoring – detecting pollution, vegetation indices, and surface materials
Industrial and material inspection – sorting, quality control, and chemical composition analysis
In summary, the MUSES9-MS offers a unique combination of spectral range, resolution, flexibility, and ease of integration, making it a powerful tool for researchers, engineers, and professionals who demand accurate and real-time spectral insights across multiple domains.
