Heritage

During the work with the Elder Westrogothic Law (Äldre Västgötalagen) we used VideometerLab to make spectral imaging and analysis of four partially or largely unreadable pages. During this process we obtained valuable new information and VideometerLab proved to be a highly useful and efficient tool. Thanks to the Videometer images, we now know a lot more about the author than we knew before.

Manuscripts from the Middle Ages

Heritage analysis is now possible with spectral imaging solutions. Hand-written manuscripts from the Middle Ages on parchment or paper and other cultural heritage artifacts may reveal new important information under VideometerLab imaging.

Examples are manuscripts in the Arnamagnæan Collection at the University of Copenhagen and the Elder Westrogothic Law at the National Library of Sweden.

Important information from manuscripts can be revealed with VideometerLab.
