Quality inspection is becoming increasingly important in the food industry. Imec closely collaborates with knowledge centers such as KU Leuven, the Flemish food sector organization Flanders’ FOOD and food production companies, to develop new technology for process and quality control in food production. One example is our compact hyperspectral camera. This technology can be used to detect foreign objects, analyze the product composition or monitor the color definition. This video, broadcasted by the Belgian television channel ‘Kanaal-Z’, demonstrates that hyperspectral technology has become mature enough to be used in the food industry.
