NERC Field Spectroscopy Facility

NERC Field Spectroscopy Facility

The NERC Field Spectroscopy Facility is a 'lending library' of spectroscopic equipment to the UK science community and beyond into international collaborations and industry. We supply training and data analysis expertise for a range of scientific instruments from handheld field spectrometers to multispectral and hyperspectral Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) borne imagery. Our sensors are used in many scientific fields, including but not limited to: ecology, geology, oceanography, glaciology and volcanology. We provide both training in and the direct provision of: UAV flights with multispectral and much rarer full-range (VNIR and SWIR) hyperspectral data; UAV flights for photogrammetry and the generation of Digital Surface Models (DSMs). To ensure imagery collected can be accurately placed geographically, we use GNSS receivers and Ground Control Points (GCPs) to fix imagery onto the globe, allowing comparison with other co-incident data in GIS software and in custom processing workflows.

Holoxica Limited

Holoxica Limited

Our vision is to “Solve 3D”. Holoxica is a tech company specialising in disruptive holographic 3D solutions from motion video displays to static images. Our tech does not need any head gear where 3D images appear in mid-air, viewable naturally, just like 'Star Wars'. We have an experienced team delivering on extreme hardware, software and 3D graphics projects. We offer a 3D light-field display capable of showing colour motion video, as well as static digital holograms. We can convert any kind of 3D digital data into a hologram. Our technology is positioned beyond current AR/VR and can be a direct replacement for this. The main applications are in professional (B2B) medical, scientific, military, industrial and commercial markets. We have recently pioneered telepresence technology which allows full duplex (two-way) 3D video conferencing across a broadband network.
