About NIR Spectrum

 

Infrared spectrum is the wavelength range of 780-2526 nm, the most prominent absorption bands occurring in the NIR region corresponds to overtones and combination of fundamental vibrations of HX bonding, where X can be carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur.

NIR Spectroscopy is commonly is used in agricultural operations to control crop parameters, such as water content, sugar content, and other indicators of ripeness. And it measure chlorophyll fluorescence to determine the need for nitrogen-based fertilizers or scans for brushing that is not visible to the human eye.

NIR is also a vibration-sensitive technology and design must take this into account for applications in a production environment. NIR spectroscopy is the study of the interaction between a sample (e.g. cereals, seeds, oils, finished products) and infrared light that has been dispersed into individual wavelengths, usually by a prism. It is electromagnetic spectrum method uses the near infrared region.

The Monarch™ is the first device that allows you to capture spectral images easily and inexpensively, anywhere and anytime. No more need for expensive, bulky and sensitive equipment or handheld point spectrometers that require a trained operator and are blind to scene context. Monarch opens a wide array of new applications for any market segment.

Unispectral Monarch camera is suitable for both hand-held inspection and installations in greenhouses, vertical growing facilities, robotics and machine vision platforms. By using spectral IR imaging, Monarch provides a new layer of information. The NIR light reflections of plants, chemicals and minerals contain information that is invisible to the human eye. Monarch small and light camera captures detailed frames in 700nm-950nm NIR spectral range that unveil actionable information. As a multi-spectral NIR camera, Monarch can measure large samples and unlike point devices, enables context understanding. Monarch opens a new array of applications, possibilities and opportunities for agriculture individuals and cooperatives.

Pros of Multispectral Filter

Image
Multispectral imaging is being used in agricultural fields to manage crops, soil, fertilizing, and irrigation more effectively. The multispectral camera captures visible and invisible images of crops and vegetation mounted under agriculture drones to detect green, red, redand near-infrared wavebands. The multispectral filter provides more than just plain pictures and there are some sensors that detect energy beyond what is humanly visible allowing us to see across broad swaths of the electromagnetic spectrum. This type of camera works by imaging different wavelengths of light. The output of the camera is a set of images of that particular length. These sets of images are then stitched together to create geographically accurate mosaics, within multiple layers of each wavelength. ColorIR NIR tunable micro IR camera by Unispectral filter is applied to convert into a multi-spectral authentication, detection, and inspection device. It enable NIR images to capturing using a standard...

Benefits of Multispectral Filter

Image
  As per the study of things that emit, reflect, and transmit some kind of light, the NIR camera wavelength ranges can extend from the size of atoms to thousands of kilometers. There are Monarch NIR portable cameras that are used for inspection applications for many purposes and fields. NIR camera has lots of features which is help in many places and the research are going on to make the camera more advanced. Unispectral NIR image capturing using standard IR micro camera and its wavelength transmission is selected by modifying mirror position. This all is possible because of NIR tunable Multispectral Filter on the camera which enables you to convert it into a Multi-spectral authentication, detection, and inspection device. A multispectral image is captured by shifting the filter frequently into the optical path and acousto-optic is used to diffract and shift the frequency of light using sound waves. Multispectral images measure light emission and it is often used to dete...
