Headwall Photonics, Inc.
Headwall Photonics is a truly unique technology venture that was founded in 2003 as the result of a management buy-out of Agilent Technologies' Holographic Grating Operation. Headwall is the world's leading high-volume manufacturer of original holographic diffraction gratings, optical modules, and fully integrated imaging instruments. The Company produces these products for end users as well as its OEM partners.

Data Collection Software
HYPERSPEC® III
Data collection is only part of the story at Headwall. Powerful software not only manages the hardware, but also processes and interprets the data after download. Data exploitation is the means by which rapid analytics and decision-making can occur, based on the spectral image data collected. Headwall is at the leading edge of this movement, for both airborne and lab-based applications.

Hyperspectral Imaging Sensors
HYPERSPEC® sensors are line-scanning instruments (sometimes called pushbroom) that collect reflected light through an image slit. One row of spatial pixels is collected per frame as motion occurs, with each pixel containing full spectral data. Motion can be accomplished in two ways: either as an airborne deployment (UAV, aircraft, or satellite) or stationary (where motion is accomplished beneath the sensor, such as a food inspection line). A third option is also available where pan-and-tilt or rotary stages allow a fixed-location sensor to scan a stationary object (such as a piece of artwork, or a mine face for geological applications).

Integrated Airborne Solutions
UAVs have evolved into the 'Go-To' platform for many remote-sensing applications. Headwall's integrated solutions combine a hyperspectral imaging sensor and choice of GPS/IMU mounted on a high-performance UAV.

Spectrometers
Raman Imaging
Headwall's Raman spectrometers provide exceptionally high signal-to-noise efficiency and signal throughput. They are based on a patented aberration-corrected, all-reflective design using Headwall's own diffraction gratings.Aberration-corrected diffractive technology enables the use of large fiber bundles within the spectrometer. Sampling of larger target areas is thus possible while maintaining enhanced signal integrity.

OEM Solutions
Headwall-manufactured gratings, spectrographs, and spectrometers maximize the quality of UV-VIS-NIR analysis. Each grating is an original piece, unmarred by replication processes. These master-quality gratings feature superior spectral and spatial resolution and extremely low scatter, meeting the demands of your high-performance instrument. We have more than 40 years of experience producing gratings and spectral engines for ourselves and for our OEM customers.
