Instrument Systems. Your experts for light measurement solutions.
Instrument Systems GmbH, founded in Munich in 1986, is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of light metrology solutions indispensable for producers of consumer electronics, AR/VR/MR displays, MicroLED wafers, VCSEL/laser diodes, automotive lighting and LED/SSL modules. All solutions benefit from our high-accuracy CAS series of spectroradiometers, widely recognized and in use worldwide. In combination with 2D imaging cameras, integrating spheres and goniometer systems, precise and traceable measurements from UV to IR can be performed (traceable to PTB or NIST).
The Optronik Line products for the automotive and traffic sectors are developed and marketed at our Berlin facility. Our branch in Korea adds the Kimsoptec Line to the portfolio and mainly serves the Korean light and display market. Instrument Systems has been a subsidiary of the Konica Minolta Group since 2012.
We are actively involved in DIN, CIE and ICDM standardization and cooperate closely with leading metrology institutes. As a member of the MicroLED Industry Association (MIA), Instrument Systems actively supports the development of MicroLED display technologies.
Test systems in display production lines
The spectrally optimized LumiTop series enables fast and precise 2D measurements of display modules at production speed. Typical tests include luminance and color homogeneity, Mura, white balance, contrast, flicker and pixel defects. Image processing is handled by the powerful LumiSuite software with flexible evaluation options.
The latest LumiTop X20 and X30 extend this concept with higher resolution (20 MP/31 MP), wide dynamic range and optimized low-luminance performance. Their electronic focus ensures fast, repeatable adaptation to different sample sizes – ideal for laboratory and production testing.
Optical testing of MicroLEDs on a wafer and in modules
With LumiTop 4000 and LumiTop X150, Instrument Systems provides fast, accurate and traceable optical measurements of MicroLED wafers and high-resolution displays. The LumiTop X150 adds ultra-high resolution up to 600 MP per color channel, enabling subpixel-accurate quality control for OLED and MicroLED production. In combination with the CAS 140D spectroradiometer, live spectral calibration synchronized to the MicroLED current source ensures per-emitter precision and reproducibility.
Quality control for AR/VR/MR devices
The LumiTop 4000 and LumiTop 5300 form our dedicated LumiTop AR/VR systems, optimized for optical testing of near-eye displays. Their specially designed AR/VR lenses mimic the human eye to measure luminance and color as perceived by the user. A wide field of view, adjustable pupil sizes and variable focus distances enable testing at both headset and module level. Hardware triggers allow synchronized two-eye measurements for binocular setups – ensuring fast and comprehensive quality control in production and R&D.
Efficient characterization of IR sources (NIR LED/VCSEL)
For 2D analysis of VCSEL arrays, the VTC IR camera series provides ultrafast, polarization-sensitive near- and far-field characterization. The systems deliver precise measurements for VCSEL applications such as 3D sensing and automotive LiDAR, both in the lab and production.
Comprehensive testing of automotive lighting
With AMS goniophotometer systems, we offer complete solutions for precise and fast photometric and colorimetric testing of exterior vehicle lighting. They are ideal for advanced applications such as high-definition and pixel headlamps or other adaptive driving beam (ADB) variants, ensuring reliable, standard-compliant measurements for product approval and R&D.
