A: The presence of filters is leading to a decrease in throughput because of photon obstruction. When dealing with 3-5 bands, this presents a slight concern for video rates. However, with 10 bands or more, the frame rate declines, making video rates impractical. In the near-infrared and infrared spectrums, there is an additional significant challenge regarding the effective "full well capacity”. Extended integration periods result in increased dark currents, which in turn diminish the dynamic range. Therefore, you must either take measurements quickly or not take them at all.

A: We are not lowering the price for the sensors. Our enhancement process can be carried out using cost-effective methods and convert the sensor from monochromatic mode to a hyperspectral mode within the wavelength range where the sensor operates

A: The existing focus of the product is identifying foreign objects in industrial production lines. Nevertheless, the technology is versatile, and because of its cost-effective implementation, future goals include offering solutions for mobile devices and additional applications that necessitate high frame rates, such as self-driving vehicles, industrial conveyor systems, and many more.

A: We do not use metals or intermetals and our matrix materials are above the current sensors that are known broadband sensors.
