The Spectral Evolution RS-8800 field spectroradiometer now works with a wide range of our accessories for in situ measurements for remote sensing applications.

The RS-8800 is equipped with a Sensaprobe grip that features a tilt angle sensor, auto-rangefinder, and camera to automatically photograph and record field of view of scanned image displayed on a personal cell phone. This capability provides researchers with a convenient way to see exactly what they are measuring.

In addition to the Sensaprobe grip, the RS-8800 can be easily interchanged with other accessories for all remote sensing applications, including: 10- and 3-mm contact probes, benchtop probe with a compactor, premium and standard pistol grips, FOV lenses, leaf clip, and portable 4-in. reflectance/transmittance sphere.

The RS-8800 field spectroradiometer is a full range (350-2500nm) high-resolution/high-sensitivity system including an Internet of Things (IoT) operating system that allows operation by iPhone, Android device, or tablet.

The RS-8800 uses its IoT operating system to control accessories so that any user can get consistent scans. The IoT uses a WiFi network accessed by an Android device, iPhone, or tablet for controlling the system and downloading data stored on the instrument.

The RS-8800 runs on lithium-ion batteries for a full day of scanning. The instrument is equipped with a custom backpack for field use.
