SpectraCube® is the light-related platform technology Applied Spectral Imaging developed. It is based on spectral imaging. Without going into a lot of technical details, it uses light's unique qualities to display information in an image that you couldn't see before. With SpectraCube®, for example, you can distinguish between different materials even if they look identical. Here, in the image on the left, it is difficult to differentiate between the red dyes. In the image on the right, the three dyes are classified by SpectraCube® and then displayed in unique colors.
