TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION

Food Quality and Safety 4.0

We meet the challenge of developing safer and more accessible food for consumers.

How do we do this?

We research and develop knowledge and capabilities by combining vision and digital technologies with data science to provide competitive advantages for companies in the agri-food industry.

01

We evaluate your needs for implementing rapid measurement systems.

02

We specialize in real-time data capture technologies

03

We explore the adaptation of sensors and monitoring devices to different food matrices.

04

We collaborate with device manufacturers to develop innovative devices or applications.

05

We validate developments in real-world environments and support you throughout industrial implementation.

06

We develop predictive models using artificial intelligence.

Facilities

Image and spectroscopy laboratory equipped with various devices:
• Portable and online NIR devices ( 450–2500 nm range).
• Hyperspectral imaging cameras ( 450–1900 nm range).
• Linear and matrix RGB cameras.
• 3D camera.
• Bioimpedance device.
• Image capture systems at laboratory and semi-pilot scales.

Specialized software for calculation and programming: experimental design, advanced statistics, and data modeling.

Data infrastructure for storage and computing.

Data processing: big data, machine learning, and deep learning.

Collaborative R&D projects focusing on this research area

At CNTA, we are working to bring food quality and safety standards up to the level required by the agri-food sector’s digital transformation. Some companies are already exploring the potential of Food Quality and Safety 4.0 with CNTA’s support. Several of them have successfully tested and validated its benefits in their industrial settings.
