SPECTRAL IMAGING

Rob Ashwell examines the growing use of hyperspectral imaging in food production

Rob Coppinger looks at the imaging equipment used on food-processing lines, including hyperspectral systems for classifying fruit and veg, and 3D vision for measuring baked goods

Greg Blackman looks at the technology surrounding spectral imaging, including hyperspectral and multispectral solutions suitable for industrial imaging

Multispectral and hyperspectral imaging techniques, which combine spectroscopy and imaging, are opening up a range of applications from environmental monitoring and agricultural research to automation of plastic recycling, as Greg Blackman discovers
