TeraHz

TeraHz is a low-cost spectrometer based on a Raspberry Pi 3 or 3 B+ and three sensors:

• AS7265x is a 18 channel spectrometer chipset that provides the device with spectral data
• VEML6075 is an UVA/UVB sensor
• APDS-9301 is a calibrated illuminance (lux) meter that provides the device with reliable readings

Why?

Because people and institutions could use an affordable and accurate light-analysing device that is also portable, easy to use and simple to assemble. TeraHz was started as an answer to our high school not being able to afford a commercially available solution. One TeraHz spectrometer costs around 150$ in parts, which makes it a competitive alternative to other solutions on the market today.
