The transflected light generates a unique digital m ap

• f the scanned object. Each point on the digital m ap

contains valuable data.

Exam ple - Dry salted fish

• The m ap is build up by digital points of

1 2 x1 2 m m .

• Each point on the m ap contains a unique NI R*

spectrum .

• By analysing the NI R spectrum at each point
• ne can decide unique features of the object.
• Applications are m ade by com paring the NI R

spectrum up against results from tests in a laboratory.

• E.g. Water content in Dry salted fish.
