Conventional multispectral and hyperspectral can't keep up (and integrate well) into existing sorting lines. They induce a slow-down in conveyer belt speeds or you have to install splitters and buy multiple $100K cameras.
(we're working to solve this problem though in the classic VC backed way - DM for more information!)
It's not quite a pickup truck. It's more an elongated car with the rear passenger area traded for a tray to carry things around in. Though having said that, the terms are often confused.
Living Optics | Software/Production/Systems Engineers | Full-time | Oxford, UK
Living Optics is a new Oxford University start-up building next-generation hyperspectral cameras. We are creating a leap forward in our capacity to easily see what is invisible to the naked eye. Using a combination of patented optical methods, machine learning, and applied mathematics, we are radically miniaturizing hyperspectral photography, bringing down costs while improving performance.
We're building a world-class team to bring our hyperspectral vision to life, and are looking for engineers who are excited for the challenge!
It reminds me of a Star Trek tricorder. Imagine having a camera where you can see easily ID greenhouse gases, quantify water/fat content in food, identify plant diseases, verify drug components, identify tumours, and measure blood oxygenation. On the machine vision side of things: it could probably outperform any conventional imaging + DNN combination, and you'd probably get pixel-wise segmentation for free while you're there.
There's been a lot of academic progress going on - it shouldn't be long until hyperspectral imaging makes its way into our lives.
I suspect, though that the owner of volvoguy.com wasn't named Joe Volvoguy. It also appears that volvoguy.com is currently a Chinese language website (which Google says simply tells me that service is not available in my area). On the other hand, Ford hasn't owned Volvo in years and the current owners are a Chinese holding company so who knows? (And Volvo Cars, formerly owned by Ford and now Geely Holding Corp, is not to be confused with the publicly traded AB Volvo which makes heavy trucks and which owned Volvo Cars before selling that division to Ford.)
Yes, big difference between swedishbrickguy.com and volvoguy.com.
Up here in the People's Republic of Kanuckistan, Canadian Tire even won a case with someone over crappytire.com. I thought that was heinous, personally, but INAL, so I am biting my tongue and not claiming that the judge erred in law.
