Permaflect® Diffuse Reflectance Targets
Near Lambertian; 350-1000 nm; Grey Scale Level 5-94%; Uniformity ±1%, ±1.5%, ±2%; Target Size 0.5x0.5-1.2x2.4 m Labsphere’s Permaflect® large-area, grey and white, reference diffuse reflectance targets are ideal for accurately assessing short-range and long-range sensitivity over the dynamic range of LiDAR systems. For imaging applications your grey target solution must work for a wide variety of lighting environments and still maintain its appearance. Most importantly it has to have uniform spectral response. It also must be thermally and physically durable, UV light stable, thermally color stable, no gloss, no polarization and no fluorescence. If your grey target solutions do not meet these requirements, you need Permaflect diffuse reflectance targets. Permaflect targets are available for individual purchase in three sizes: 0.5 x 0.5, 1.0 x 1.0, 1.5 x 1.5 or 1.2 x 2.4 m, unframed and with or without mounting. Available reflectance factors are 5%, 10%, 18%, 50%, 80% and 94%. Permaflect diffuse reflectance targets are also available in Labsphere's LiDAR Test Target Kits, including three reflectance levels; 10%, 50% and 80%, a robust case that holds all three Permaflect targets for storage and transport, and spectral reflectance and uniformity test reports. The kits come in a choice of three target sizes; 0.5 x 0.5, 1.0 x 1.0 and 1.5 x 1.5 m. Key Features: Lightweight: 1.5 kg (0.5 x 0.5 m) to 18 kg (1.2 x 2.4 m) Tailorable Targets Sizes: 0.5 x 0.5, 1.0 x 1.0, 1.5 x 1.5, 1.2 x 2.4 m Target Sizes Are Ideal for the Operating Distance Reflectance Levels in NIR Laser Wavelength 905 to 940 and 1550 nm Grey Scale Levels: 5%, 10%, 18%, 50%, 80%, 94% Variance From Average: ±1%, ±1.5%, +3%/-0% Uniform Reflectance Over the Entire Reflecting Surface – Uniformity: ±1%, ±1.5%, ±2% Typical Flatness: 0% to 8% Peak-to-Peak From 350 to 950 nm Near Lambertian Diffuse Reflectance Factor for Incident Angle Independence Durable and Robust for Production and Field Use Easy to Clean LiDAR Test Kit Accommodates Mounting of the Frameless Targets Applications: LiDAR; Time of Flight; Ground Truth; Imager Calibration; Sensor/Source Compensation; Remote Sensing; Coatings & Materials; Airborne Calibration; Automotive Sensor Calibration; Spectral Radiance; Spectroradiometer Calibration; Reflectance Factor
