Santa Barbara Infrared (SBIR) has partnered with Labsphere to provide an unparalleled family of Electro-Optical Test Systems. The COLOSUS systems, which include collimated optics, software, and uniform sources, are complete test solutions for optical characterization of sensors and cameras, offering both collimated and flood-mode test configurations. The two companies have merged their engineering expertise in hardware and software to offer turnkey, fully-calibrated solutions.

Integrating spheres, blackbodies, collimators, target wheels, system peripherals, and traceable calibration data are combined and controlled by the IRWindows4 automated test software package to provide a single, easy-to-use testing method for each of the new systems in the product series. In addition to the COLOSUS family of standard product configurations, custom test solutions can be designed to achieve specific program requirements.

With its HELIOS product line of sphere-based sources, Labsphere is a premier global provider of ground-based calibration systems for large, earth-observing satellites. The company also offers optical calibration solutions for remote sensing and terrestrial imaging systems.

Santa Barbara Infrared’s blackbody sources, including the recently introduced VANTABLACK-S that features carbon nanotube technology, provide the industry’s highest infrared emissivity, enabling unparalleled radiometric accuracy across the mid-wave and long-wave infrared bands.

The new COLOSUS family of fully-calibrated, integrated E-O testing solutions will be on demonstration at the Santa Barbara Infrared’s booth and/or Labsphere’s booth at SPIE’s DCS Exhibition in Anaheim, CA to be held from April 11 - 13, 2017.
