Researchers recovered 42 lost pages of Codex H using multispectral imaging, revealing previously invisible text from a 6th-century manuscript.
Multispectral imaging works by capturing light in several distinct wavelength bands, including those not visible to the human eye. This enables more detailed information capture when compared to traditional RGB sensors, which only detect red, green, and blue wavelengths. Using multispectral sensors could help future iPhones achieve better material separation and improved depth perception, with the latter resulting in more accurate portrait photos.
