Hyperspectral Technology vs. RGB
Hyperspectral imaging is not limited to the visible part of the spectrum.
Machine vision manufacturers widely use Red-Green-Blue (RGB) cameras. These cameras are suitable for characterizing objects based on their shape and color. However, since only three visible bands are available, their identification capability is minimal.
Hyperspectral technology may be used for more demanding applications to measure objects or scenes by recording hundreds of spectral channels (bands) across a wide spectral bandpass. Those bands are contiguous and are not limited to the visible part of the spectrum.
