Company Summary

Chromation is commercializing a proprietary low cost sensor for handheld color and light measurement. In this field there is a gap between low cost and high performance products. Our spectral sensor addresses this gap: it is 10x cheaper than a spectrometer and 4x smaller. Our customers are makers of systems where low cost is enabling (color measurement) and small size provides a competitive advantage (authentication, medical/water testing).
