Hyperspectral imaging works by capturing images in multiple wavelengths across the electromagnetic spectrum. Each pixel in the image contains a spectrum of light, which can be analyzed to identify specific chemical compositions, materials, or contaminants. This makes hyperspectral imaging ideal for applications like sorting recyclable materials, detecting pollutants, or analyzing crops in agriculture.

An NIR (Near-Infrared) spectrometer is an analytical instrument that measures the absorbance or reflectance of near-infrared light (typically from 780 nm to 2500 nm) by a sample. It is used to determine the chemical composition or physical properties of materials based on how they interact with this specific range of light. NIR spectrometers are widely used in industries such as recycling, agriculture, food processing, and pharmaceuticals for rapid, non-destructive analysis.
Near-Infrared (NIR) Spectroscopy works by analyzing how different materials absorb and reflect infrared light. This technique is widely used for:
Sorting mixed plastics in recycling plants
Identifying textiles for reuse and upcycling
Analyzing food quality and composition
