The embedded data processing platform EVK ALPHA G100 from our Clusterpartner EVK DI Kerschhaggl GmbH was honored with the machine vision award Inspect Award 2023. The EVK ALPHA is a powerful data processing platform to rapidly and securely process spectral image data in real time. The analysis and classification of materials takes place separately from the sensor or camera and is therefore particularly flexible in its use.
The EVK ALPHA G100 features an optimized spectral imaging system for a single GigEVision/ GenICam compliant imaging sensor for real-time spectral data classification. The edge-computing platform supports all EVK market-proven data processing functions for qualitative and quantitative analysis.
Together with a hyperspectral core camera the system takes on tasks such as theclassification of individual polymers in complex plastic waste streams, the evaluation of refuse-derived fuels as well as the detection of foreign bodies and analysis of quality defects in the food industry. Advanced functionality enables the operation of complex sorting applications in real-time.

For the manufacturing plants of tomorrow, it is important to be able to display an increasing number of different materials in a single product stream and to make the key data available in real-time. The EVK ALPHA platform provides industrial clients with this capability and optimizes their production processes and resource utilization.
