System Integration
Our hyperspectral camera systems can be integrated into production and inspection lines to detect contamination and accurately grade products in real time, sending data to sorting mechanisms to take immediate action, ensuring the full value of the goods are realized.
Software
Data collection is only part of the story at Headwall. Powerful image processing software not only manages the hardware, but also processes and interprets the data after download. Real-time spectral classification is also possible with many configurations. Our hyperspectral cameras can also send data using industry-standard protocols such as GenICam.
