Alpha MOS has developed a Visual Analyzer for advanced color analysis of complex surfaces of food, beverage and packaging products. This instrument performs an overall visual analysis of the product as seen by the consumer, whatever the size, shape, texture, packaging. It also allows a focused visual analysis of selected portions.
The IRIS Visual Analyzer consists of:
- a closable measurement chamber of large dimensions (420 x 560 mm) that guarantees controlled light conditions, with no influence of external light for visual analysis
- a CCD camera (16 Million colors) for high resolution imaging
- data acquisition and processing, achieved through Alpha MOS proprietary software (Alpha Soft) using advanced multivariate statistics.
IRIS Visual Analyzer is thus designed for both qualitative and quantitative analysis of visual parameters in quality control, process monitoring and competitive benchmarking applications:
- Visual palatability of food products & packaging
- Visual monitoring of product stability and shelf life
- Visual benchmarking of competitive products
- Exogenous colors / materials identification
- Surface analysis
- Analysis of consumer visual likings.
