The task
Design and engineer a portable spectrometer using Si-Wares’ lab on a chip technology to provide farmers with instant, in-field materials analysis to allow fast adjustments to maximise livestock feed quality.
The solution
The NeoSpectra Scanner- a sturdy and ergonomic hand-held device that provide on-demand accurate analysis of homogeneous and non-homogeneous samples using Si-wares single-chip FT-NIR technology.
Your lab in the pocket
Farmers can simply calibrate, scan and analyse data measured from the bag, barrel or bucket to make prompt decisions and improve feed quality, in turn increasing production and profit.
The success of our work helped Si-Ware secure a partnership with Dairyland Laboratories Inc. to distribute the NeoSpectra scanner to the market.
