Assessing Food Inspection Techniques
Assessing Food Inspection Techniques
Providing safe, high-quality food requires inspection of food products. In the past, people relied on human senses to judge food based on its appearance, smell, and texture. But with today’s more advanced inspection methods, it is not only possible to grade products based on color, texture, moisture content, and internal features but also on contents such as fat, sugar, or even glucose level, without damaging the food product.

Navigating the Options for 3D Imaging
Navigating the Options for 3D Imaging
A useful way to think about 3D sensing and imaging systems is to understand that in virtually all of these components the 3D information is derived by processing one or more 2D images, often with associated unique and very specific illumination strategies. Put more cleverly, “3D is 2D.” It may seem like a trivial point, but this detail will help to clarify the various available imaging techniques and their strengths and limitations.

Image Sensor Sockets: A Key Factor in Camera Design
Image Sensor Sockets: A Key Factor in Camera Design
Camera makers — and, therefore, image sensor makers — today are under greater pressure than ever to offer new models that provide higher resolution and higher speed, respectively. With higher resolution comes sharper images. With higher speed, comes the ability to capture moving images with greater clarity than ever before.
