The STS Developer Kit for spectral sensing from Ocean Optics (Dunedin, FL) includes the company's STS spectrometer, Raspberry Pi microcomputer, customizable software, and wireless capabilities. Using ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) absorption spectroscopy across 200-1100 nm, the kit is programmable for various DNA, RNA, or protein measurements, as well as blood oxygenation. The kit can be used as a base for building more compact instruments, including handheld point-of-care devices. The kit also offers a choice between three STS spectrometers: STS-UV (190-650 nm), STS-Vis (350-800 nm), or STS-NIR (650-1100 nm).
