Optica Online Industry Meeting: Photonics for Farming & Food

17 March 2026 10:00 - 11:30

Join us for the Optica Online Industry Meeting on Photonics for Farming & Food: From Field to Factory with Light-Based Intelligence, where experts will explore how light-based technologies — including hyperspectral imaging, LiDAR, lasers, fiber optics, fluorescence, and spectroscopy — are transforming agriculture and food production.

From crop fields and livestock barns to processing plants and quality control labs, photonics is powering real-time, non-destructive, and precise decision-making. This session bridges farm-level innovation (crop health, animal welfare, smart sensing) with industry-level impact (traceability, sustainability, compliance, and consumer trust), connecting farmers, AgTech developers, food producers, and photonics companies in a live public forum.
