# Application of hyperspectral technology in detection of agricultural products and food: A Review

## TL;DR

This paper reviews how hyperspectral technology can quickly and non-destructively detect food quality and safety, offering advantages over traditional methods.

## Contribution

A systematic review of hyperspectral imaging applications in agricultural and food product detection, highlighting its benefits and research challenges.

## Key findings

- Hyperspectral technology enables rapid, nondestructive food quality assessment.
- The method requires minimal experimental conditions and is highly operable.
- Deficiencies and key research areas in hyperspectral imaging for food safety are identified.

## Abstract

Food is the foundation of human survival. With the development and progress of society, people increasingly focus on the problems of food quality and safety, which is closely related to human's health. Thus, the whole industrial chain from farmland to dining table need to be strictly controlled. Traditional detection methods are time‐consuming, laborious, and destructive. In recent years, hyperspectral technology has been more and more applied to food safety and quality detection, because the technology can achieve rapid and nondestructive detection of food, and the requirement to experimental condition is low; operability is strong. In this paper, hyperspectral imaging technology was briefly introduced, and its application in agricultural products and food detection in recent years was systematically summarized, and the key points in the research process were deeply discussed. This work lays a solid foundation for the peers to the following in‐depth research and application of this technology.

Compared with chemical detection, the advantages of this technology were introduced.The application progress of hyperspectral technology in primary agricultural products and food in recent years was systematically reviewed.The deficiency and key points of this technology in the research were discussed in depth.
