Multispectral illumination for Archiving and Digitization

Multispectral Illumination for Scanning & Archiving

Unlock Hidden Details. Preserve Cultural Heritage.

Multispectral illumination brings a new level of precision to scanning and archiving by revealing information invisible to standard imaging systems. In modern archiving workflows, capturing every detail matters. Especially when dealing with historical documents, faded manuscripts, or security prints, conventional scanning often falls short.

By using advanced illumination technologies such as iQ-LED, cameras can capture images under different wavelengths, from ultraviolet through visible light to infrared (up to 1050 nm). This enables the visualization of hidden inscriptions, erased text, or material differences that would otherwise remain undetected.

Unlike traditional light sources, multispectral illumination allows highly accurate spectral reproduction and stability. With finely controlled spectral channels, cameras can be optimized for specific archiving tasks, ensuring consistent, reproducible, and high-quality digitization results. This is particularly critical for cultural heritage preservation, forensic analysis, and security document verification.

With years of experience in imaging science, Image Engineering combines cutting-edge iQ-LED illumination technology with specialized test targets to evaluate and optimize scanner performance. Our solutions empower archives, libraries, and imaging labs to achieve superior image quality and unlock the full informational value of their collections.

Multispectral‑Imaging Support

Multispectral illumination unlocks information that conventional scanning simply cannot capture. When historical documents, faded manuscripts, or security prints require deeper insight, imaging across UV, visible, and IR wavelengths reveals hidden text, erased markings, and material differences. Our team supports you in building multispectral workflows that expose the full informational value of cultural heritage and archival materials.
