Halifax builder of NIST-traceable optical measurement instruments — integrating-sphere spectroradiometers and chairside radiometers — that measure the spectral output and delivered dose of dental curing lights.
Canadian innovation builds a brighter tomorrow.
Bluelight Analytics states that it "was founded out of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, Canada in 2009", and that "Since then we've been at the forefront of light measurement technology, using our expertise to improve clinical and business outcomes for dentists, DSOs, manufacturers, and dental schools around the world." Its MARC-LC is described as the laboratory reference for characterizing curing lights, measuring absolute radiant power by wavelength from the visible into the infrared as a NIST-traceable laboratory instrument, built from four laboratory subsystems integrated into one box including an integrating sphere and a NIST-traceable spectrometer.
States it was founded out of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia in 2009, and reports more than 400,000 light evaluations across 35+ countries and 65,000 clinics. bluelightanalytics.com
Its MARC-LC measures absolute radiant power by wavelength from 350 to 1,000 nm as a NIST-traceable laboratory instrument supporting the radiometric test methods in ISO 10650. bluelightanalytics.com
States the MARC-LC was independently benchmarked against a laboratory integrating-sphere gold standard, with an adjusted R-squared above 0.99. bluelightanalytics.com
