SpectraLux Subsea Light
SpectraLux 2
SpectraLux lights concentrates the beam along a line, to only use power on the part of the scene that is recorded by a line camera such as the push-broom underwater hyperspectral imager.
This reduces the backscatter and reduces power consumption by a factor of 5 compared to regular lamps while keeping the light intensity approximately the same. The light distribution along the line is optimized; higher intensity towards the edges where the travel distance are higher and sensor sensitivity often lower.
