HSI Equipment by Newtec​

Newtec Engineering — who is a close partner of Qtechnology — has developed their own hyperspectral scanner machines which use the Hypervision cameras internally.

Buteo Hyperspectral Equipment 1​

Developed by Newtec, the Buteo Hyperspectral Imaging System utilizes the Hypervision cameras and streamlines sample scanning and data collection. The system generates exportable datacubes, making it an essential tool for offline processing and investigative research.

  • Two versions for either the VIS-NIR (400-1000nm) or the VIS-SWIR (430-1700nm) ranges
  • FOV: 300mm wide
  • Sub millimeter resolution size 0.17 mm x 0.25 mm
  • Belt speed: ~100mm/s
  • Focused broadband halogen illumination
  • The HSI datacubes are exported as PAM files using the BSQ data ordering
