Surface Optics Corporation is back at SPIE Defense + Security 2026, this time at Booth #935 in National Harbor, Maryland, April 28-30. As a returning presence at the conference, we are bringing our newest instrument, the 710-OmniCore, and presenting original research on the methodological choices that shape the performance and data quality of hyperspectral imaging systems.
Advancing Pushbroom Hyperspectral Imaging Performance and Value
Surface Optics has launched the 710-HyCore VNIR and 710-OmniCore VNIR hyperspectral imaging systems, the next generation of our highly successful 710 Series, a product line trusted by customers for almost 20 years. Built on a new proprietary spectrograph design with co-engineered optics and sensor, both systems deliver remarkably high spectral resolution and consistent performance at a price point that would typically only buy significantly lower performance.
Stop by our booth for a demonstration, and our team will be on hand throughout the conference to walk through the systems’ capabilities, answer technical questions, and discuss your specific application requirements.
Catch our Talk on Hyperspectral Imaging
Join Jackson Wagner from our hyperspectral applications team for “Hyperspectral imaging: a comparison of two second-order correction techniques and scanning methods” on Tuesday, April 28, 2026 from 3:30 PM to 3:50 PM EDT in National Harbor 12.
Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging systems leverage a variety of scanning and correction techniques for collecting high fidelity color information data cubes. Rich color information enables user to understand the unique reflective properties and ultimately compositional characteristics of materials of interest. Here we compare two different scanning techniques for hyperspectral image collection, object and camera; and two different correction techniques, digital and filter based order blocking. Finally we highlight the pros and cons for the implementation of each strategy.
