THE WORLD‘S FIRST USB STICK SPECTROMETER

KEY FEATURES:
• Spectral resolution: 1.2 nm FWHM
• Subminiature design
• Excellent value for money
• Includes world‘s smartest spectroscopy software

The Qstick is the world’s first USB stick spectrometer. In an
incredibly small housing, it includes a complete scientific-grade
spectrometer. With a resolution of 1.2 nm across the full visible
spectrum, it‘s the perfect companion to your laptop for portable
spectroscopy.
You don‘t even need your own laptop: the Qstick includes a USB
flash drive with device drivers and application software. So just
plug it into any PC, install the software from the device and you‘re
ready to go. Afterwards, you can store your measurements on the
Qstick flash drive for later evaluation.
The Qstick is delivered in a water- and dustproof protection case
that also includes a 1.2 m optical fiber with SMA 905 connectors
and a printed user manual.
