Success with the EIC Transition programme
NIREOS secures EU funding to revolutionise hyperspectral imaging
Nireos was awarded funding from the highly competitive EIC Transition Open programme for their innovative project, HYPERIA. A proposal process that was supported by Nordic Innovators.
At the heart of HYPERIA lies a disruptive innovation: NIREOS’ proprietary time-domain Fourier-transform spectroscopy—a radically new approach in hyperspectral imaging (HSI) that sets it apart from conventional solutions.
HYPERIA Unlocks Unseen Detail
The camera is designed to “see the invisible”. It dramatically expands the wavelength range and enhances sensitivity under low light intensities with a wide range of possible applications - from food freshness and composition, plastic waste separation to the analysis of fine arts and remote inspection of building materials.
Moreover, the system will measure not just the colour of objects around us, but the entire light spectrum for each pixel across a two-dimensional field of view. This results in an unprecedented level of spectral detail, covering everything from the visible to the short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) spectrum.
HYPERIA’s advanced imaging capabilities open new frontiers across industries including food tech, recycling, cultural heritage and construction, , optimise, and push the boundaries of what’s possible with optical sensing.
