Applications
SAFETY & SECURITY
Photon etc’s infrared camera is an ideal tool for the rapid detection of explosive liquid precursors.
ENVIRONMENT & AGRICULTURE
Hyperspectral imagery can be efficiently used to identify any type of molecules through the analysis of its characteristic spectrum. A few examples of applications for agriculture include the measurement of: – Fat, protein, lactose and suspension in milk – Greases, protein and humidity in meat and cheese – Protein, carbohydrate, fiber and humidity in animal food – Food and drinks – Alcohol, sugar and sourness in fruit juices – Protein, oil, ash, humidity and particule sizes in flour – Fermentation, microbiology and microbes in food

Photon etc’s Global Imaging Technology
The Photon etc video shows the conceptual difference between hyperspectral global imaging and raster scan (line-scan, push-broom). With global imaging, the gain in acquiring 3D data, 2D spatial and 1D spectral, is important since the only a few monochromatic images are required to cover the complete spectral range where one needs to take the full spectrum for each point or line in the image with other technologies.
