Here at Living Optics, we are developing pioneering hyperspectral cameras for the mass market. Our devices access information invisible to human eyes and conventional cameras, enabling discoveries ranging from plastics sorting to greenhouse gas detection and tumor detection. Our unique approach to hyperspectral imaging combines patented optical methods, built-from-scratch neural networks, and a small dose of pure maths. We’re well on our way to radically democratize and miniaturize hyperspectral systems, which have long been confined to research labs. Since being spun out from the Physics Department of the University of Oxford in 2020, we have been developing the complex engineering and software applications ahead of our product launch in 2023. In September 2022, we announced our Series A £20M investment from Oxford Science Enterprises, Foresight Williams, Oxford Investment Consultants, and Octopus Ventures.
