Hyperspectral imaging and X-ray inspection in the food industry

Hyperspectral imaging opens new opportunities for quality control and grading for many types of food products.

Food producers must ensure the quality of their products at every step of the process. At different steps of the processing chain, food can be contaminated and become a health hazard. The quantification of several parameters, such as fat, moisture, sugar, and protein content, is crucial to provide high quality. A contaminated food package, or a mismatch in the labeled and actual nutritive properties, can quickly ruin a brand reputation, hardly gained over the years.
