HORIBA releases software development kit for spectroscopy system integration
Easily integrate HORIBA spectroscopy components into custom systems
2 Mar 2026
HORIBA has released EzSpec™-SDK, a flexible and robust software development kit designed to seamlessly integrate HORIBA spectrometers and detectors into custom-designed systems and applications.
EzSpec-SDK provides software developers who are writing their own software and integrating HORIBA components (CCDs, iHRs, and detectors) into customer solutions, with full control over HORIBA’s spectroscopy hardware using programming languages: Python, C++, C#, and LabVIEW.
The downloadable SDK includes complete documentation, starter code, and example applications — freely accessible via GitHub — enabling users to automate workflows, optimize parameters, and enhance reproducibility.
The EzSpec-SDK allows complete control over spectroscopy systems. It can be used to design experiments, conduct experiments, and adjust hardware parameters. Users can easily automate repetitive functions and define and save experimental parameters.
EzSpec-SDK supports the HORIBA MicroHR and iHR Spectrometers, the Syncerity™, Synapse™, SynapsePlus, SynapseEM and Symphony™ II array detectors, and the single channel SpectrAcq3 detector. It enables control of gratings, slits, shutters, filters, and detector settings and includes full documentation and examples for rapid development.
Backed by dedicated HORIBA integration support, EzSpec-SDK uses an electronic license key (no dongle required) and is licensed per computer. Volume licensing is available.
