Future of hyperspectral imaging

July 6, 2020

For a large part of the last three decades since its development, a hyperspectral imaging (HSI) system was assembled from assorted bulky components. The past few years has seen HSI reducing in size and weight, such that smaller hand-held portable and lightweight cameras for unmanned aerial vehicles are commonplace.

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a passive, non-invasive technique that detects reflected light. Combining the high-spectral information from the camera with artificial intelligence software, HSI is used to analyse and detect features in the spatial images. Thanks to its potential, its application domain is growing.
