CRAIC Technologies released its Lambdafire microspectroscopy and imaging software package. Written specifically for Window 8, this software is designed to collect, analyze, and process both microspectra and images from CRAIC microspectrophotometers running Windows 8. The complete Lambdafire solution combines 64-bit software written specifically to take advantage of the latest generation of CRAIC microspectrophotometers, such as the new 20/30 PV, and the latest versions of Windows. Lambdafire software allows the user to control CRAIC microspectrophotometers and to acquire high quality ultraviolet, color and near infrared spectra and images of microscopic samples by absorbance, reflectance, Raman, and different types of luminescence and fluorescence. The software also incorporates many advanced data analysis features that can be used to analyze microspectra and images. It incorporates a number of tools for analyzing the UV-visible-NIR data. It also features touch screen control, a native Windows 8 feature, and automation control. Additional modules may be incorporated to add such capabilities as small spot film thickness measurements and micro-colorimetry.
