Delivering Spectroscopy for A Connected High Speed World
Spectrometers are increasingly required to support high speed data transfer and remote operation applications and this trend demonstrates the critical nature of applications which are being served with this technology. We live in an era of unprecedented connectivity that is able to support and demands larger amounts of data for increasingly complex analysis. Spectroscopy Magazine interviewed with Damon Lenski, who is General Manager of North America, to discuss how Avantes is addressing these needs.
IoT-based Spectral Sensing Brings Real-Time Grape Ripeness Monitoring to Vineyards
February 26th 2025A team of researchers from the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) in Braga, Portugal, has developed an autonomous Internet of Things (IoT) spectral sensing system designed to monitor grape ripening in real-time. The study, led by Hugo M. Oliveira, Alessio Tugnolo, Natacha Fontes, Carlos Marques, and Álvaro Geraldes, was published in Computers and Electronics in Agriculture and introduces a novel approach to non-destructive, in-situ optical monitoring of grape maturity.
