Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Baie-d'Urfé, Québec, MatrixSpec Solutions is an AI company with a focus on providing non-destructive solutions for optimized and efficient processes, leading to superior quality and safety of products. The company uses cutting-edge artificial intelligence, machine learning, and hyperspectral imaging technology to provide game-changer solutions to the industry, especially the food and agri-food industry.
The cost-effective approach is a combination of hyperspectral imaging and Artificial Intelligence for a non-invasive method that leaves the eggshell intact, having been validated in commercial hatcheries. It protects both the hatchability and integrity of the egg.
“As farmers, we understand firsthand the need to continue to evolve our approach and use new innovations to address the challenges at hand,” said Roger Pelissero, Co-Chair of Canadian Egg Technologies. “HyperEye provides a unique solution for hatcheries worldwide and can help accelerate our collective efforts in addressing a complex area of our supply chain.”
The HyperEye technology is stand-alone and can be built into the processes of a typical hatchery. The small footprint of the system makes it ideal for facilities of any size and the current design allows for straightforward technology upgrades.
With successful testing completed in commercial hatchery settings, Canadian Egg Technologies and MatrixSpec are already engaging with industry leaders to implement this groundbreaking technology in key markets.
“Working directly with farmers has allowed us to understand the intricacies of hatcheries and the egg supply chain. Together, we are not only addressing animal welfare concerns but also offering a practical and scalable tool that is designed to integrate seamlessly into hatcheries,” commented Dr. Michael Ngadi, the Chief Executive Officer of MatrixSpec. “With our ongoing development efforts aimed at enabling sex identification before incubation, the current design allows for straightforward upgrades that incorporate new functionality when ready. This approach future-proofs our system and means our partners will lead the industry in innovation while benefiting from its efficiency and performance.”
