Image Quality Test Lab

Testing Cameras According to International Standards

Standardized Camera Testing

Using international standards to guide our camera testing

Throughout our lab's history, we have consistently ensured that our camera test methods comply with international standards for camera and sensor testing. Camera system engineers rely on many applicable international standards to guide their camera development.

These standards are regularly updated to maintain relevance as technology and requirements evolve. Many of our test engineers are members of the working groups responsible for updating the standards, giving us firsthand experience with the test methods and camera test equipment outlined in them.

Typically, cameras require testing and calibration across multiple image-quality performance factors. When you order a test through our lab, you will provide your specifications, and we will recommend the test combination that best suits your needs.

We currently offer camera tests for the following internationally recognized imaging standards:
