Abstract:
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is an analytical technique originally developed for low earth orbit remote sensing applications. Every pixel in an image generated by HSI has a spectrum covering the spectral range of the instrument (e.g. UV-Vis, NIR, SWIR). Advances in detector technology, sensor design, computer processing, and data storage allow HSI to be deployed on low-cost commercial UAVs, used for laboratory research, and installed in process environments for advanced machine vision applications. This talk will introduce HSI and share its application to various industries such as agriculture, cultural heritage, environmental monitoring, infrastructure monitoring, mining, oil and gas exploration and polymer analysis.
