The new technology is capable of detecting diamonds of just a few millimeters in size in kimberlite ore - of grain sizes up to 50 millimeters. Different substances can be identified with very high reliability. An algorithm developed at EZRT filters out the data about the material from both images. In the process, two images of the same object are produced using two different X-ray spectra. The process is based on dual-energy X-rays. The department focuses on the subjects of X-ray sensor technology, computed tomography, image processing and optical 3D inspection systems as well as applications. EZRT is a division of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS cooperating closely with the Fraunhofer Institute for Nondestructive Testing IZFP in Saarbrücken. The Development Center for X-ray Technology EZRT in Fürth has developed a demonstrator that detects diamonds hiding inside rocks of volcanic origin.
