In-line hyperspectral vision system

Overview

EOPTIS' hyperspectral vision solution is based on a linear InGaAS camera that operates in the range of 900-1700 nm, a custom illumination system with selectable wavelengths, and a classification software for automatic identification of different materials in the area under analysis.

The system well suits the customer needs. In the preliminary feasibility study the approach with traditional vision systems was discarded, focusing on the design of an innovative system that can retrieve the chemical information of the scanned materials by analyzing its response in the near-infrared range. The system is used in the production line to discard products contaminated by unwanted elements.

Technology

EOPTIS - Hyperspectral imagingHyperspectral imaging uses imaging sensors and wavelength-selective optical devices, like diffraction grating or optical filters. Combining these components, the system can grab a set of images relative to different wavelengths. During the analysis, the images are combined to create a 3-dimensional image, called hypercube, where each pixel has the complete spectral information.

Using classification algorithms it is possible to analyse the spectrum of each pixel and to identify and sort different materials and perform high resolution colorimetric measurements.
