MATIS Experience

Supporting Art Experts in their daily Authentication Works

What we do

MATIS offers a user-friendly, certified multispectral camera coupled with an intuitive user interface for a robust pigment mapping, pigment identification and improved visualization of underdrawings in oil paintings.

With our improved and targeted illumination-induced technology, our camera is an intuitive tool to assist art experts in their daily authentication assessment, increasing efficiency without hiring costly third-party experts or engineers.

Illumination module

Looking at Art differently

Our illumination layout provides an automatic power adjustment and calibration, adapted to any experimental conditions of images acquisition. Based on physics models of light absorption and reflection, our illumination-induced multispectral images reveal the different layers of the artworks from surface examination to underdrawings, according to the thickness and condition of the artworks. Our technology allows for an accurate pixel-wise reflectance extraction.

  • High resolution images
  • 13 different bands
  • Handheld
  • No external lamps and equipment needed

Certificate of authenticity become much more valuable when coupled with provenance and technical investigation: scientific analysis put into context with technical art history.

Multispectral Technology

Multispectral imaging involves capturing images of the artwork using a range of wavelengths beyond what is visible to the human eye, from ultraviolet (UV) to infrared (IR). Each wavelength provides unique information about the materiality of the artworks, revealing hidden details, underlying structures and material properties that may not be apparent under normal visible light. 

The MATIS solution is unique, based on physics models of light absorption and reflection, our illumination-induced multispectral images reveal the different layers of the artworks from surface examination to underdrawings, according to the thickness and condition of the artworks.
