Is your water safe to drink? Is there enough phosphorus in your soil? Do you think you might have an infection? SpectroClick can help you find out by giving you the tools to measure the makeup of water, soil, and biological samples and obtain results instantly. SpectroClick puts spectroscopy in the palm of your hand with the Answers At Hand™ line of spectrometers. Anyone with access to a USB port can use patented SpectroBurst™ technology. AAH™ instruments use a digital camera to capture data, then our app allows users to process your spectrum quickly, comprehensively, and with unparalleled flexibility and portability. AAH spectrometers are complemented with the SpectroClick Kit rudimentary spectrometer and the SpectroBurst™ Viewer diffraction grating toy. See the light with SpectroClick!
SpectroClick’s technology is protected by US patents 8,885,161, 10,324,023, and 11,067,497.

Alexander Scheeline was teaching an Instrumental Analysis class in Hanoi, Vietnam, when his student, Bui Anh Thu, used a class project to discover new spectrometric dispersion, calibration, and dynamic range extension technologies. In 2011, the two partnered and used this newfound knowledge to co-found SpectroClick, Inc. Today, SpectroClick has expanded its team to include three more, and has a wide range of products, including the SpectroClick kit for classroom use, SpectroBurst™ Viewer for budding spectroscopists of all ages, and the AAH line of miniature spectrometers to bring spectrometry to users world-wide.
