About
Hypercore
company
Hypercore is an R&D start-up aimed to create and develop innovative laboratory and industrial solutions based on hyperspectral imaging principle. As a result of our long-term R&D work (which is still being continued) we developed our own software for processing and interpretation of hyperspectral data, which could be used for development of products in different areas of economy and grants unlimited possibilities for new products development.
Currently we decided to focus on the development of following products:
WINGSBEE
Industrial solid waste sorting machine for high-throughput and fast sorting of solid wastes (MSW) based on hyperspectral imaging principle.

Learn MoreOur Team
Hypercore team consists of serial entrepreneurs with research background and reach history of start-ups creation and highly-skilled professionals who had proven their abilities through the results achieved.
We are an experienced and cohesive team of enthusiasts who feel that our solutions will disrupt the market in several industries: solid waste sorting and ESG-management of plants, mining, laboratory research and R&D, geology, oil and gas, etc.
Our Method
We focus on the innovative method of hyperspectral imaging which allows us to develop products for various industries.
Hyperspectral imaging method is environmentally friendly, harmless for any living being and for many tasks it has a potential to substitute “dirty” methods such as chemical treatment or X-Ray.
Our strategic approach is building a full-stack company with complete cycle solutions from scratch to end product while having everything in-house: engineering, software development, hardware development and manufacturing, sales and marketing and customer support.
Our Mission
Ensure that every industrial plant in the world is sorting 100% of solid wastes and all 100% is recycled and re-used – to achieve ZERO waste produced by humans!
Develop a universal ore and minerals sorting tool to maximize sorting quality and speed with NO influence on the environment.
Disrupt, simplify and accelerate the industry of laboratory research by full automatization of initial data collection and data interpretation.
WINGSBEE is at integrated system for fully-automatic municipal solid waste (MSW) sorting by composition of hyperspectral imaging (NIR), color (VIS) and/or shape (AI, neural networks and deep learning).
Working principle
The WINGSBEE sorting machines technology is based on the determination and separation of different materials by method of hyperspectral analysis.
The sorting machine's sensors react to reflected light in the infrared range and determine the MSW material. The block of pneumatic valves takes the signal and at the moment of garbage passing over the corresponding valve, the stream of compressed air "shoots" fraction from the general stream of waste.
The separated flows move further down the process chain. To separate the whole flow of solid waste sorting machine s are set by cascade.
WINGSBEE
has 3 scanning modules – VIS, SWIR, MWIR.
