[From Cancer Detection to Food Waste Reduction] Cutting-edge 'Hyperspectral Camera' Technology Featured on Nippon TV! | Exhibiting at FOOMA JAPAN 2026

Milk. Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Hiroyumi Nakaya), a deep-tech venture visualizing the 'invisible world' through hyperspectral technology and AI, announced that its 'Invisible World' business was featured on the Nippon TV program 'Hakase wa Kyou mo Shitto suru' on Sunday, May 17. The 'Invisible World' business develops hyperspectral technology that analyzes 'subtle color differences' invisible to the human eye, enabling applications such as cancer detection support, food freshness visualization, and authenticity verification. While standard cameras recognize colors using three primary colors (RGB), this technology acquires light information in 141 primary colors, allowing for the analysis of minute color differences. By visualizing 'invisible information,' it is expected to be applied in various fields including medicine, food, infrastructure, and space. During the program, the company's product 'irodori,' which condenses this technology into a palm-sized device, was introduced, and a unique segment featuring Daisuke Miyagawa performing authenticity verification was conducted. The program showcased the technology's ability to decode differences invisible to the human eye, creating excitement in the studio. The 'irodori' product, which condenses space-derived light sensor technology into a palm-sized device, is currently undergoing collaborations with overseas companies, including those in Turkey and Taiwan, which are among the world's leading lemon producers. Milk. Inc. envisions a future where social issues are solved by visualizing invisible information. We are confident that the 'light information' acquired through hyperspectral technology has the potential to solve various social issues, not only in early cancer detection and diagnostic support but also in food waste reduction and infrastructure aging detection. Milk. Inc. will exhibit at 'FOOMA JAPAN 2026,' one of the world's largest food manufacturing exhibitions, held at Tokyo Big Sight for four days from June 2 (Tue) to June 5 (Fri), 2026. In this exhibition, we will showcase solutions that use our handheld light sensor 'irodori' to non-destructively quantify food freshness, maturity, plant growth status, and component information. Additionally, on June 4 (Thu), CEO Hiroyumi Nakaya will hold a pitch presentation. Please come to the venue to see how we implement hyperspectral technology, rooted in space technology, into the food industry and social issue resolution, and witness the 'future without food waste' that Milk. Inc. envisions.
