The opportunity

Recycling is an optics problem.

Recovering value from mixed waste depends on identifying materials at high speed. That takes NIR and hyperspectral cameras, laser-based detection and rugged sensors, all built to survive dirty, demanding facilities.

  • Sorting accuracy depends on spectral range and sensor choice
  • Fill-level and gas sensors must run for years on battery
  • Harsh facilities shorten hardware life without careful design

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can Hyper help with hyperspectral camera selection?

Yes. Hyper AI explains spectral range, resolution and illumination trade-offs for sorting applications.

Can we design battery-powered sensors?

Design Studio supports sensor and IC projects with versioned specs, and Simulation helps model power use.

Can Hyper track sensor fleet performance?

Yield & Analytics provides defect and performance dashboards for deployed hardware.

How do we find packaging partners for rugged sensors?

Fab Network lets you request quotes from packaging, test and materials partners from one place.

How does Hyper pricing work?

Pricing is usage-based. Every workspace starts on a generous free tier with twice the free usage the big incumbents offer, and after that you only pay for what you use. There are no setup fees.
