Hyperspectral imaging is used in industry in areas where conventional image processing systems reach their limits. The Austrian software company Perception Park specialises in hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology and now offers complete solutions that are also intended for use in the packaging and recycling industries.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

When plastics are recycled and returned to the production cycle, they must have a high degree of purity, especially for use in the food sector. However, plastic waste often poses challenges for detection systems in the sorting plant. This is where hyperspectral chemical colour imaging technology can help to identify materials precisely.<\/strong> Hyperspectral cameras are used to convert the chemical properties of a product or material into a spectral signature that functions like a chemical fingerprint. Using special software (Perception Studio), each chemical component is labelled with its own colour and made visible.<\/p>

\u201eOnly hyperspectral technology can reliably detect which materials are being processed before they are recycled.\u201c<\/p>

The Graz-based company is regarded as a pioneer in the field of HSI technology. \u201eWe have developed HSI was the first company to be rethought and simplified in this way,<\/strong> that it can also be used by users without specialised knowledge. Today, it is used for leak testing cheese packaging as well as for the end-of-line inspection of packaged ready-made pizza,\u201c explains Burgstaller.<\/p>

In the recycling sector, HSI helps with Differentiation of the material flow, bale inspection and detection of plastics in waste<\/strong>. The technology is also used in the wood, pharmaceutical and food industries as well as in numerous other industrial segments.<\/p>

\u201eUntil now, software development has been our main business. Now we are going one step further and also offering complete solutions that can be integrated into existing systems.\u201c<\/p>

Ulrich Sch\u00f6n<\/strong>Business Development Manager<\/p><\/blockquote>

To this end, the company has Perception Head<\/strong> developed a measuring head that can be used to analyse material flows, and Perception Analyser<\/strong>, a stand-alone solution for batch control.<\/p>
