Multispectral Specimen Index

Catalogue comparing light reflection, absorption, and structural signatures across Visible (380–700nm), Near-Infrared / NIR (700–1000nm), and Ultraviolet / UV (300–400nm) wavebands using full-spectrum sensor rigs and bandpass filters.

Botanical & Flora

Specimen Visible (VIS) Near-Infrared (NIR) Ultraviolet (UV) Spectral Notes
Mountain Ash High NIR foliage bounce; UV berry absorption.
Rose Hips Cuticle wax UV bounce vs dark NIR contrast.
Himalayan Blackberry Dynamic NIR leaf bloom; drupelet UV signatures.
Oregon Grape Heavy waxy leaf coating UV scattering.
Morning Glory / Moonflower Floral throat UV bullseye target guide.
Azalea Petal nectar guides revealed under ~365nm.
Lavender Trichome/essential oil UV reflectivity.
Himalayan Balsam Petal absorption gradient into UV band.
Black-Eyed Susan Striking UV absorber center target.
Tiger Lily Anther/petal contrast & UV guide spots.
Meadow Dandelion Strong UV absorption pattern across florets.
Pinecone Lignin scattering vs resin UV absorption.

Found Objects & Feathers

Specimen Visible (VIS) Near-Infrared (NIR) Ultraviolet (UV) Structural Notes
Blue Jay Feather Tyndall structural blue drops out in NIR (melanin base remains).

Body & Optical Applications

Specimen Visible (VIS) Near-Infrared (NIR) Ultraviolet (UV) Bandpass/Absorption Notes
Sunscreen Application Invisible in VIS/NIR; jet-black absorbing layer in UV.
Clear Corrective Lenses Transparent in VIS/NIR; opaque UV-blocking coating block.
