Single-Sole Source Determination
PR-655 SpectraScan Spectroradiometer listed herein is available from only one source.
Two additional salient features of the PR-655 SpectraScan Spectroradiometer make it unique. First, it can read photometric properties of monitors at long range. This is essential for calibrating displays in the MRI scanner, since the device will be required to operate from outside of the MRI room at great distance (>6 meters). Second, PR-655 SpectraScan Spectroradiometer has very high resolution, which will support 10-bit monitor calibration. These two features make the PR-655 unique amongst available Spectroradiometers.
Background/Description of Requirement

Many of the experiments performed by members of the Laboratory of Brain and Cognition (LBC) require a carefully calibrated monitor in which the luminance of the output is linearized with respect to the digigital input values. Currently, the LBC does not have a spectroradiometer capable of performing this calibration. The PR-655 SpectraScan is unique in that it can interface with various other pieces of equipment in the lab, syncronizing changes in monitor output with luminance measurments, as well as operating at long range, which is a requirment for calibrating LCD displays in the fMRI scanner (since the high magnetic field strength of the scanner precludes bringing the spectroradiometer close to the display.
