- Laurence Robinson: Founder
Osiris is the first infrared imaging system designed specifically for art conservators to provide high-resolution, high-speed images in a small portable camera. Osiris has been used to examine hundreds of works of art at many of the major national art galleries throughout the world. In the Louvre, works by artists such as Leonardo da Vinci,
Rembrandt, Watteau have been examined. An ARM® microcontroller sits at the heart of the camera controlling the scanning system, driving the infrared sensor and sending the captured data to the PC over a USB connection. The PC receives the data stream and assembles it into an image of the under drawing, displaying it as the scanning process proceeds. The Board of SDI believes that the Osiris cameras will enhance SDI’s current product offering and intends to explore further applications for the technology beyond its current use.
