Greg Blackman reports on a presentation Eric Camirand of Waste Robotics gave about hyperspectral imaging and robotics used in recycling plants
Photometric stereo uses 3D surface orientation and its effect on reflected light to produce a contrast image accentuating local 3D surface variations, making complex inspections cheaper and more effective
This webinar looked at new spectral imaging technology, including lighting techniques, prism-based cameras, and how it's used in food and waste sorting

Leslie Lyons, business development manager for light metrology at Pro-Lite Technology, says spectral camera calibration needs a spectrally tunable light source
Smart Vision Lights’ NanoDrive allows LEDs to be at full power in 500ns or less. NanoDrive can operate in either continuous or OverDrive strobe modes.

How do you choose a 3D vision system for a robot cell? Geraldine Cheok and Kamel Saidi at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in the USA discuss an initiative to define standards for industrial 3D imaging
Smart Vision Lights has introduced three lines of short wave infrared LED-based machine vision lights
A short introduction to shortwave infrared (SWIR) imaging: An overview of SWIR technology and principals. Contains examples and suggestions for practical implementation of SWIR imaging in machine vision systems.
CCS now offers a range of OLED industrial lighting panels, which are opening up new possibilities in machine vision, writes Paul Downey, marketing manager at CCS Europe
The webcast, taking place on 29 May at 3pm BST, will explore the latest equipment for imaging in the shortwave infrared, including narrowband SWIR LEDs and a SWIR camera based on a colloidal quantum dot sensor
