LAMPA SET with Master & Satellite Lamp for Spectral Analysis System
3-in-1 Ligh Solution for Art Conservation
LAMPA is a all-in-one UV-VIS-IR illumination system dedicated to the needs of art analysis and conservation.
The master lamp is equipped with a remote control function, the satellite lamp increases the illuminated area and improves the homogeneity of the illumination.
Automatic mode is provided via the complete XpeCAM® solution, where LAMPA directly responds to the lighting requirements of the XpeCAM® system.

INTRODUCTION TO XpeCAM® Solution
Spectral imaging technology is well known in the heritage & conservation practice for a long time since the introduction of filters coupled to analog cameras for technical photography.
Nowadays, the digital era of modern sensors, allows to computationally explore digital data, compare, cluster and apply machine learning and artificial intelligence methodologies.
XpeCAM® is a multispectral solution developed to analyze artwork in a non-destructive way. This allows non-touching measurements of surface areas to be easily acquired and extract deep knowledge information as pigment classification, automated mapping of different materials and more.
HOW IT WORKS
Only two steps are required:
- Acquire data using tech automated hardware
- Upload data into XpeCAM® platform for automatic processing and analysis.
The XpeCAM® Solution is composed by:
- XpeCAM® X02 - the multispectral acquisition device
- XpecEYE software - the data acquisition software to operate XpeCAM® X02 in your local computer, without internet
- LAMPA Master - a broadband UV-VIS-IR light source
- LAMPA Satellite - one support light source to promote light homogeneity
- XpeCAM® Platform Access - cloud based workspace to process, analyze data, and manage work
APPLICATIONS
The XpeCAM® Solution aims to answer essential questions in cultural heritage field as the in-depth study of the characteristics of a surface, without the necessity of taking physical samples. Professionals are searching for changes in a surface, whether they belong to different materials or to material degradations, as also to monitor the treatments’ progression, through non-destructive analysis:
- Visualize a painting in ultraviolet, visible, and infrared for better analysis
- Characterize and map pigments and repaints existence
- Certify that cleaning tests are performed without damages
- Monitor the varnish removal during a conservation treatment
- Ensure the homogeneous application of a varnish layer
- Understand the colour fading through time, by comparative analysis
…and this is just an example of a work process in a single painting.
Therefore, XpeCAM® is a fast, portable, and reliable solution to use from the first approach to artworks. It will empower your knowledge about what is really happening in the surface.
CASE STUDIES
CASE STUDY 1: PAINTING ON CANVAS
XpeCAM® empowers professionals with results from a fast and non-destructive analysis of the surface. This is made possible, by a fast multi-spectral data acquisition device, and an automated data processing and analysis platform.
Results allow the user to understand the material dispersion through automatically generated surface mappings, track treatment processes and monitor changes after intervention.
Comparison of one artwork, between what we see with our eyes, and what XpeCAM® provides regarding pigments classification.
CASE STUDY 2: GRAPHICAL DOCUMENTS
Hidden information encrypted by censorships, or vanished contents through time, is again accessible without the use of any hazardous chemical treatment. XpeCAM® enhances data visualization, allowing our eyes to see what is invisible. It is now possible to process large amounts of documents in a fast pace, empowering institutions to offer a democratic access to new data.
In the left image we can see a censored text with iron gall ink. A digital ink removal was automatically done as seen in the right image.
CASE STUDY 3: MURAL PAINTING
XpeCAM® provides information on Mural Paintings from the light that cross them. It is then possible to understand the initial constructive draw schemes, the colours, or the pathologies dispersion across the surface.
From the infinite type of inks and mixture recipes, we can always enhance the surface’s immersive interpretation.
In the image on the left, a black and white PCA analysis is presented, and in the image on the right, the clustered materials are enhanced in pseudocolour, enabling a better understanding.
