Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and NIR hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) were compared for the rapid estimation of physical and mechanical properties of No. 2 visual grade 2 × 4 (38.1 mm by 88.9 mm) Douglas-fir structural lumber. In total, 390 lumber samples were acquired from four mills in North America and destructively tested through bending. From each piece of lumber, a 25-mm length block was cut to collect diffuse reflectance NIR spectra and hyperspectral images. Calibrations for the specific gravity (SG) of both the lumber (SGlumber) and 25-mm block (SGblock) and the lumber modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) were created using partial least squares (PLS) regression and their performance checked with a prediction set. The strongest calibrations were based on NIR spectra; however, the NIR-HSI data provided stronger predictions for all properties. In terms of fit statistics, SGblock gave the best results, followed by SGlumber, MOE, and MOR. The NIR-HSI SGlumber, MOE, and MOR calibrations were used to predict these properties for each pixel across the transverse surface of the scanned samples, allowing SG, MOE, and MOR variation within and among rings to be observed.

Nowadays in agriculture, new analytical tools based on spectroscopic technologies are developed. Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a well known technology in the agricultural sector allowing the acquisition of chemical information from the samples with a large number of advantages, such as: easy to use tool, fast and simultaneous analysis of several components, non-polluting, noninvasive and non destructive technology, and possibility of online or field implementation. Recently, NIRS system was combined with imaging technologies creating the Near Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging system (NIR-HSI). This technology provides simultaneously spectral and spatial information from an object. The main differences between NIR-HSI and NIRS is that many spectra can be recorded simultaneously from a large area of an object with the former while with NIRS only one spectrum was recorded for analysis on a small area. In this work, both technologies are presented with special focus on the main spectrum and images analysis methods. Several qualitative and quantitative applications of NIRS and NIR-HSI in agricultural products are listed. Developments of NIRS and NIR-HSI will enhance progress in the field of agriculture by providing high quality and safe agricultural products, better plant and grain selection techniques or compound feed industry’s productivity among others.

Hyperspectral imaging technology is a powerful tool for non-destructive quality assessment of fruits. The objective of this research was to develop novel calibration model based on hyperspectral imaging to estimate soluble solid content (SSC) of starfruits. A hyperspectral imaging system, which consists of a near infrared  camera, a spectrograph V10, a halogen lighting and a conveyor belt system, was used in this study to acquire hyperspectral  images of the samples in visible and near infrared (500-1000 nm) regions. Partial least square (PLS) was used to build the model and to find the optimal wavelength. Two different masks were applied for obtaining the spectral data. The optimal wavelengths were evaluated using multi linear regression (MLR). The coefficient of determination (R2) for validation using the model with first mask (M1) and second mask (M2) were 0.82 and 0.80, respectively.

A novel system of implementing target identification with hyperspectral imaging system based on acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) was proposed. The system consists of lens, AOTF, AOTF driver, CCD and image collection installation. Owing to the high spatial and spectral resolution, the system can operate in the spectral range from visible light to near infrared band. An experiment of detecting and recognizing of two different kinds of camouflage armets from background was presented. When the characteristic spectral wave bands are 680nm and 750nm, the two camouflage armets exhibit different spectral characteristic. The target camouflage armets in the hyperspectral images are distinct from background and the contrast of armets and background is increased. The image fusion, target segmentation and pick-up of those images with especial spectral characteristics were realized by the Hyperspectral Imaging System. The 600nm, 680nm, and 750nm images were processed by the Pseudo color fusion algorithm, thus the camouflage armets are more easily observed by naked eyes. Experimental results confirm that AOTF hyperspectral imaging system can acquire image of high contrast, and has the ability of detecting and identification camouflage objects.

A method and system for detecting faecal and ingesta contaminants on poultry carcasses were demonstrated. A visible/near infrared monochromator, which measured reflectance and principal component analysis were first used to identify key wavelengths from faecal and uncontaminated skin samples. Measurements at 434, 517, 565 and 628 nm were identified and used for evaluation with a hyperspectral imaging system. The hyperspectral imaging system, which was a line-scan (pushbroom) imaging system, consisted of a hyperspectral camera, fibre-optic line lights, a computer and frame grabber. The hyperspectral imaging camera consisted of a high-resolution charge coupled device (CCD) camera, a prism-grating-prism spectrograph, focusing lens, associated optical hardware and a motorised controller. The imaging system operated from about 400 to 900 nm. The hyperspectral imaging system was calibrated for wavelength, distance and percent reflectance and analysis of calibrated images at the key wavelengths indicated that single-wavelength images were inadequate for detecting contaminants. However, a ratio of images at two of the key wavelengths was able to identify faecal and ingesta contaminants. Specifically, the ratio of the 565-nm image divided by the 517-nm image produced good results. The ratio image was then further processed by masking the background and either enhancing the image contrast with a non-linear histogram stretch, or applying a faecal threshold. The results indicated that, for the limited sample population, more than 96% of the contaminants were detected. Thus, the hyperspectral imaging system was able to detect contaminants and showed feasibility, but was too slow for real-time on-line processing. Therefore, a multivariate system operating at 565 and 517 nm, which should be capable of operating at real-time on-line processing speed, should be used. Further research with such a system needs to be conducted.
