Art Restoration With SWIR

Applications for SWIR use cases are limitless because of its ability to provide images that are not visible. One application that is especially important is art restoration. Art restoration is a delicate process, due to aging making pieces sensitive or brittle. Applying SWIR in their imaging process allows conservators to view past years of built-up grime or colors that have long since dulled from time and sun exposure, decreasing the amount of handling.

Industrial Vision

Advancements are being made for industrial companies to use automated processes to make their supply chains run more efficiently. Some automated processes implement machine vision into their sorting and transportation technology with their inclusion of image sensors allowing the ability to view diverse types of packaging materials.
