The H-Cube project addresses the growing need for low-cost, portable solutions for hyperspectral imaging in the terahertz (THz) region of the electromagnetic spectrum. THz waves have significant applications in a variety of fields, including health, safety, construction, agriculture, drug development, monitoring of transport and civil infrastructure, quality control on production lines and astronomy.
H-Cube aims to overcome the challenges of high costs and limited “colour imaging” capabilities of current THz technologies, by offering a revolutionary, affordable (<€2,000) and scalable solution. Using an innovative hyperspectral sensor based on micromechanical oscillator arrays, the project promises to extend the use of THz imaging from expensive and low-volume applications to everyday uses such as crop monitoring and infrastructure control.
The event was an important opportunity to share achievements and discuss future prospects for this cutting-edge technology.
