XIMEA’s new xiSpec Multi-Linescan HSI camera is based on the design and technology of the xiQ series of industrial USB 3.0 cameras.
This camera features a line-wise arrangement of 150 HSI bands. Due to the high frame rate of the image sensor, the camera enables detailed and crisp captures of moving objects at multiple wavelengths. Thereby the objects can be moved orthogonally to the horizontal colour filters of a mounted camera (such as on a conveyor belt), or the camera can be attached to a UAV, which flies over a large area.
The visual and near-infrared (NIR) spectrum of this camera is especially relevant in precision agriculture, but other applications include remote sensing, mineralogy, life science and food inspection.
