TSCOUT for global temperature monitoring from space

TSCOUT for global temperature monitoring from space

The multi-spectral thermal infrared imager with high spatial resolution TSCOUT is the first multi-spectral infrared imager with high resolution made for small satellites. It is designed to be operated on nano, micro and larger satellites. Making use of new developments in detector technology ...
Stray light correction algorithms

Stray light correction algorithms

Stray light is a big challenge for Earth observation space missions trying to measure the spectrum of Earth’s atmosphere. To counter this, the expert team at cosine has developed stray light correction algorithms and has applied them to flagship space missions for air quality.
XRT High-Energy Optics Simulation

XRT High-Energy Optics Simulation

Quickly determine realistic system performances and features The high energy optics software simulates X and gamma-ray imaging systems based on grazing incidence scattering using the Monte Carlo technique. The software offers control of the surface properties and scattering processes at each ...
X-Ray Interferometer

X-Ray Interferometer

The XRI is an X-Ray interferometer under development, capable of detecting angular differences as small as 1 millionth of a arcsecond. This technology is based on the Silicon Pore Optics and is created in cooperation with the Leicester university as an additional configuration for (space ...
Fish freshness inspection with a spectral camera

Fish freshness inspection with a spectral camera

The fish industry in the Netherlands alone consists of about 300 companies that generate a total revenue of 4 billion euros. Food quality, freshness and safety are important factors in this industry. cosine and spin-off condi food developed an objective, non-destructive inspection method to ...
Laue lens for radiotherapy

Laue lens for radiotherapy

It is very difficult to reflect hard X-rays and gamma rays with a mirror as they pass through most materials, but they can be diffracted by crystal planes. A so-called Laue lens uses crystals that are arranged to form a lens. However, if you use regular crystals with flat crystal planes, the ...
Rail inspection multi camera system

Rail inspection multi camera system

The imagery from three cameras is fused in order to collect a hemispherical view of the environment around train tracks. An embedded FPGA ensures that the three heads acquire the frames simultaneously, while also ensuring that each head is properly exposed to within a given tolerance to the ...
Structural integrity monitoring of polymer pipes

Structural integrity monitoring of polymer pipes

Integrity management of thermoplastic composite pipes can be done much more easily if the right data is available. As they often transport flammable or even explosive liquids, no electricity can be used. cosine developed in-mold sensors that can be embedded in the material and an RF readout ...
Milkpowder quality check for brand protection

Milkpowder quality check for brand protection

Hyperspectral imaging combined with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) can distinguish adulterated powders in different samples of dairy product powders without using wet chemical analysis methods. We also applied machine vision techniques to recognize black particles in samples of milk ...
Tomato sorting by hyperspectral imaging

Tomato sorting by hyperspectral imaging

The food industry requires a high level of quality for huge product volumes. But individual product quality inspections are not always feasible, due to volume, processing speed and technology limitations. Many of the current quality control methods are destructive, indirect, sample based and ...
Lidar altimeter

Lidar altimeter

ALART is a time-of-flight lidar which uses a high repetition rate laser and a single-photon detector. The design of ALART has been optimized for vegetation height monitoring. Each detector used can individually detect the arrival time of 1024 photons per shot with a resolution of 312 ...
Hyperspectral camera for forensics

Hyperspectral camera for forensics

Seeking to expand their offering of high-tech forensic solutions, the Amsterdam-based Forensic Technical Solutions (FTS) asked cosine to develop a hyperspectral imaging camera. The camera can be used at a crime scene by forensic scientists to quickly determine whether possible blood traces are ...
