Spectrum sensor technology plays an important role in the areas of Industry and Factory 4.0, the Internet of Things as well as Sustainability and Environment 4.0.
Spectrum sensor technology refers to sensors that collect and analyse information from the electromagnetic spectrum. This means that instead of just measuring simple values such as temperature or pressure, this technology records how an object reflects or absorbs light, colours or other invisible rays.
A typical example: In modern production lines, spectrum sensors recognise whether food is fresh or contains impurities. The sensor technology therefore sees more than the human eye and therefore helps to check quality and safety. These sensors are also used in environmental monitoring, for example to identify pollutants in the air or water.
In the context of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things, spectrum sensor technology enables intelligent networking and precise control of processes in real time. It provides the data basis for making automated decisions and utilising resources more efficiently.
Spectrum sensor technology therefore makes a significant contribution to greater safety, quality and sustainability in production and the environment.
