Discover more below about the science behind LinkSquare and making your own food tech solution in 3 steps.
LinkSquare® is a portable spectrometer that uses visible and near-infrared spectroscopy to obtain the unique spectral signature of a material.
The spectral data is collected by the LinkSquare software into a database of signatures to make data models and build your solutions. This creates potential solutions for measuring Brix, freshness, ripeness and more!
Spectroscopy
The study of the absorption and emission of light and other radiation by matter, as related to the dependence of these processes on the wavelength of the radiation.
Spectral signature
The variation of reflectance or emittance of a material with respect to wavelengths. LinkSquare uses each material's unique signature formed by the interaction between the reflected light from the spectrometer and certain molecules within the material.
1. Scan your data
LinkSquare solutions are built on spectral data.
Scan your food materials to obtain the spectral signatures needed for your analysis and solutions.
2. Build your database
LinkSquare's software is a database for your spectral data. Visualize, analyze, and export the data with an intuitive UI.
3. Create your solution
Transform your data by with AI Platform, the powerful machine learning platform to combine with LinkSquare and create usable applets on your smartphone. Applets can be shared to other any other LinkSquare app!
