UK Research and Innovation, through the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund, will invest up to £20 million in innovation projects. These must improve productivity and sustainability by developing enhanced decision support, precision agriculture technology solutions and systems for crop and ruminant agriculture.
This briefing event will include:
Andrew Williams on the uses and current state of hyperspectral imaging, along with the technique’s potential as an industrial inspection tool
The harvesting process could be on the verge of a complete overhaul thanks to machine vision, finds Matthew Dale
Rob Ashwell examines the growing use of hyperspectral imaging in food production
Jessica Rowbury looks at how imaging technology is allowing farmers to reduce their environmental impact while improving profitability
Greg Blackman looks at the relatively recent introduction of vision in farming, from measuring vigour in vineyards to grading cherries
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
Greg Blackman looks at where machine vision is finding uses in agriculture and for grading and sorting foodstuffs
Keely Portway investigates the latest advances in 3D vision equipment, and how they could open up new industrial imaging applications
Greg Blackman speaks to Torsten Wiesinger at Lucid Vision Labs, one of the newest industrial camera manufacturers on the block
A combination of vision, sensor and deep learning technologies are creating extraordinary developments in retail, writes Matthew Dale
Machine vision technology is improving quality control in automotive manufacturing, writes Andrew Williams
