FoodScanner


Using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy based on its Spectral Scanner Platform, Spectral Engines’ FoodScanner is able to precisely determine the levels of fat, protein, sugar and energy in food products. Data is shared via Bluetooth and the accompanying app. The scanner is small, wearable, reliable and simple to use. The platform is also easy to connect to other applications. In March 2017, the scanner won another prestigious European innovation prize: the Horizon Prize.
