A setup for use in an industrial process is required to work in real time. The combination of Rapid fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (Rapid-FLIM) and neural networks shows significant improvements in capture time compared to other FLIM technologies, while achieving a reliable differentiation of foodstuffs and plastics.}, language = {en} }
