How does HSI reveal hidden details that are invisible to the naked eye or even to conventional machine vision systems? And can HSI truly detect the subtle variations in materials that other technologies miss?
What kind of cost savings and improvements to efficiency can industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, pharmaceuticals and material sorting expect from the adoption of HSI? How does it contribute to superior quality control and defect detection? And what are the specific success stories that demonstrate its impact?
This roundtable discussion with three leading developers, manufacturers and users of industrial hyperspectral imaging will explore how the technology can transform industrial solutions.
What are the key challenges to integrating advanced HSI technologies? What are the barriers to the widespread adoption of HSI, and how can businesses overcome them? Our expert panellists will answer these questions and more…
Key topics will include: Unlocking hidden properties: Learn how hyperspectral imaging unveils previously inaccessible data about materials, enhancing inspection processes and enabling the more accurate detection of defects, contaminants or inconsistencies.
Industrial non-destructive applications: Discover how various industries are integrating hyperspectral imaging into their workflows, from monitoring food quality to ensuring precision in material composition in manufacturing, without causing additional damage. Explore practical case studies that include the use of non-destructive inspection and quality control in manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, smart agriculture and more.
More effective quality control and enhanced sustainability: Explore how HSI systems can detect production issues earlier to reduce waste and optimise the use of resources, leading to more efficient and more environmentally responsible manufacturing processes.
Technical challenges and integration: Hear about the challenges and opportunities of integrating hyperspectral imaging into existing industrial systems, improving data processing with AI and calibrating complex hardware/software systems. Learn strategies to overcome these barriers.
