Innovation industries invest in new optical spectroscopy start-up
By shining an infrared light on, for example, a tomato, you can see whether it is ripe. Part of the light is reflected. Another part is absorbed. If we collect enough data, you can use that light to see how many sugars the tomato has, says Maurangelo Petruzzella, Managing Director and co-founder of MantiSpectra. The company, a recent spin-off from Eindhoven University of Technology, has received an investment of Innovation Industries and PhotonDelta.
MantiSpectra is developing an innovative near infrared (NIR) spectrometer technology using photonic integrated chips. Spectrometers can measure the chemical composition of a sample by using light. Current solutions tend to be bulky, expensive and need to be operated in labs by well-trained personnel. By using photonic integrated chips (PICs), MantiSpectra is able to make them cheaper, smaller and easier to use, making the technology accessible to a wide range of appl
