FluxData joins Pixelteq, which also manufactures multispectral imaging cameras, in Halma’s suite of companies, alongside Ocean Optics, Labsphere, Avo Photonics, and Fiberguide Industries.
Founded in 2006, FluxData provides multispectral and polarimetric imaging systems for a wide range of applications, including high volume production quality control, medical imaging, food and agricultural analysis, traffic control, and air and water analysis for environmental protection. The company will become the newest member of Halma’s Environmental and Analysis sector.

‘FluxData is a great addition to Halma’s Environmental and Analysis sector as it advances our knowledge of and applications in spectral imaging,’ said sector chief executive Chuck Dubois. ‘Some of their products and manufacturing processes incorporate components from other Halma photonics companies. We expect that these and other collaborative relationships will increase with FluxData as part of the group, providing many opportunities for future innovation and invention.’
