Using area or line light sources, line-scan hyperspectral imaging systems are primarily created and utilised for surface inspection of food and agricultural items.
A line-scan sensor is a specialised device that employs a row of sensors to take a series of quick one-pixel “slices” of a digital image.
This calls for either the subject to be moving past the sensor or the sensor to be moving past the subject. When high-speed, high-resolution, or flawless images are required, line scan cameras are utilised in vision applications.
Scanners frequently employ line-scan technology because it is particularly effective at capturing photos of moving objects. A contact image sensor, a unique type of line-scan device, is used by check scanners.
Because they are used to take pictures, line-scan sensors are commonly referred to as “cameras,” but they are actually a fundamentally different kind of technology than conventional cameras.
Area-array cameras are almost always used in everyday photography; in contrast, line-scan sensors are typically used for office and industrial duties and cannot be used interchangeably.
The global Hyperspectral Linescan sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
In order to address the demands for in-line measurement and the growing demand for high-precision measurement, the Japan-based Mitutoyo Corporation has introduced a flexible non-contact laser line sensor capable of dimensional inspection and profile measuring.
SurfaceMeasure1008S is a smart sensor that targets inline automated measurement and especially leverages Mitutoyo’s distinctive optical system in addition to standard sensor technology.
It is the result of a technical partnership with a Canadian business. SurfaceMeasure1008S will make it possible to significantly increase the productivity of in-line measurement and 100% inspection in a variety of industries, including the food, pharmaceutical, and electrical/electronics/semiconductor industries, as well as the automotive and food industries.
SurfaceMeasure1008S can quickly (up to 10 kHz) acquire the profiles and three-dimensional shapes of measurement workpieces and then automatically determine the sensor’s internal state.
Additionally, it has a parts matching feature that enables the measurement tool to be used throughout, regardless of how the parts being measured are oriented. Alignment is not necessary to obtain measurements. The sensor is rated IP67 and has a 20 m accuracy with a 0.5 m Z repeatability.
