Headwall Photonics has been selected to develop instrumentation for food processing and safety applications.
It has formed a cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA) with the USDA Agricultural Research Service to develop and deploy spectral imaging systems for in-line processing of poultry, fruit, vegetables and other food products.
The Hyperspec and Raman Explorer spectral imaging platforms provide the spectral capabilities necessary to provide in-line processing for high-volume inspection of agricultural and food products and other process industries.
Headwall's spectral imaging sensors can be tuned for the detection of different materials, additives or contaminants.
