What’s New

TII Spectrometry 1.0.3 (ilomilo)

• support for Broadcom spectrometers

• support for classification models in time lapse recordings and time lapse analysis

• added an application example that showcases multi-spectrometer control, absolute intensity calibration, and remote control to characterize an LED-based solar simulator

• raw data display during live acquisitions.

• low intensity masking to exclude low intensity regions of reference spectra from absorption / transmission spectrum computation

• Kramer-Kronig analysis for reflectance spectra

TII Spectrometry 1.0.2 (Lost Cause)

• wavelength calibration / verification

• configuration files can now be loaded on startup

• remote control using the TII Spectrometry TCP/IP server

• web dashboard

• remote control using TII Spectrometry as server and client

TII Spectrometry 1.0.1 (Wildflower)

• spectral stitching in multi-spectrometer mode

• intensity calibration using manufacturer-supplied sensitivity data

• improved connection reliability and wider instrument support for StellarNet spectrometers

TII Spectrometry 1.0.0 (Bittersuite)

This is the initial public release of TII Spectrometry.
