Published purpose

This project develops a real-time hyperspectral analysis system for use on production conveyor belts at mining or mineral processing operations. Using visual and hyperspectral imaging with next generation onboard processing modules, it analyzes particle size, shape, volume, and material composition to detect contamination and ore grade variations. Built for harsh industrial environments, it features a rugged enclosure, with resistance to dust, moisture, chemical, shock and vibration. Running on Linux, it will be secure, stable and support MODBUS TCP and OPC UA for seamless automation. The design includes mechanical, electrical, and PCB engineering for a durable, high-performance solution that the mining industry requires.
