📸 What does your company actually do? I get asked this all the time—by family, friends, and former colleagues: “What does Westboro Photonics actually do?” This post is my attempt to answer that in plain language. At its core, light metrology is the science of measuring light. Not just how bright it is, but how it behaves—its color, intensity, distribution, and how it interacts with surfaces and environments. It’s essential in industries like automotive, aerospace, consumer electronics, and lighting design, where precision and consistency in visual performance matter. At Westboro Photonics, we specialize in making this science practical. Our systems help engineers and researchers capture and analyze light with high accuracy—whether it's from a dashboard display, a headlamp, or a smartphone screen. 💡 What makes us different? The real magic lies in our software: Photometrica. Unlike traditional imaging software, Photometrica is built from the ground up for scientific-grade light measurement. It’s not just about capturing images—it’s about extracting meaningful, calibrated data from those images. Some key differentiators: - Spectral & spatial analysis: Measure light across wavelengths and across surfaces. - Custom workflows: Tailor measurements to your specific application—from display testing to stray light analysis. - Automation & scripting: Build repeatable, scalable testing routines. - Hardware integration: Seamlessly control cameras, spectrometers, and light sources. - And to top it off, we operate an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory, which means our calibration and measurement capabilities meet internationally recognized standards for technical competence and quality assurance. Whether you're designing a safer car interior or optimizing a new optical device, Photometrica helps you see light the way physics sees it—not just the way the eye does. If you're curious about how light metrology might apply to your field—or just want to understand what our team spends its days working on—drop me a message or comment below.
