About

Spectricity designs and develops CMOS-based multispectral imaging solutions for mobile and consumer electronics, enabling sensing beyond the visible spectrum. As a fabless semiconductor company, Spectricity creates miniaturized, mass-manufacturable multispectral image sensors that address the fundamental limitation of conventional smartphone cameras, which struggle with color accuracy due to confused white balancing algorithms. The company's product portfolio includes the S1 Multispectral Image Sensor (core innovation in miniaturized form), the S1-M Camera Module (small form factor integration), and the S1-A Accessory Device (plug-and-play mobile solution). These sensors operate in the visible and near-infrared spectral range (400nm-1050nm) and enable applications including automatic white balance, wound monitoring, skin analysis, food analysis, agriculture, and biomedical diagnostics. Spectricity differentiates itself through chip-size sensors that can be integrated into high-volume mobile devices, bringing professional-grade spectral analysis to consumer electronics. The company showcases its technology at major industry events including MWC and Photonics West. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Mechelen, Belgium, Spectricity has raised $23.7M in Series B funding from investors including imec.xpand, Capricorn Fusion China Fund, Atlantic Bridge, and Capricorn Partners.
