Project description

Hyperspectral vision systems for lab-scale already demonstrated their potential. Technical limitations prevent the broad industrial deployment. The lab results are being used to derive specific industrial vision systems with limited bandwidth. The Project provides a platform allowing hyperspectral vision can be fully translated into industrial applications and can provide an alternative to current systems of sorting and analyzing laser light and LED light using color filters to reduce the data stream. By offering economically feasible hyperspectral vision, systems which are based vision, more flexible, more selective and more versatile. In the User Flemish companies are included that in sorting are leading to food applications worldwide, as well as companies with applications in medicine, agriculture and water quality monitoring. In the Users are also included companies that supply to record to system construction for vision systems and cost-hyper spectral components in their development processes and future product offerings.
