Precision monitoring of high-speed production

Machine vision is a useful tool for detecting defects and controlling the dimensions of agri-food products on a conveyor. Today, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is emerging to analyse the composition. However, the HSI instruments currently available are not equipped for high-speed food production or new practices in precision agriculture.

The objective of the HS2I project is to combine HSI with high-speed imaging to answer these unmet needs. This involves developing a new type of camera.

In the food industry, HS2I will enable the use of HSI technology for fast, reliable and fully automatic food monitoring – including detection of foreign bodies and management of cooking level, moisture content and product composition.
