Abstract:
A material sorting system sorts materials utilizing a vision system that implements a machine learning system in order to identify or classify each of the materials, which are then sorted into separate groups based on such an identification or classification. The material sorting system may include an x-ray fluorescence system to perform a classification of the materials in combination with the vision system, whereby the classification efforts of the vision system and x-ray fluorescence system are combined in order to classify and sort the materials.

Claim (Index 12):
A device for identifying at least one characteristic of a material, comprising:\n an x-ray source configured to illuminate the material to produce an x-ray fluorescence spectrum from the material; an x-ray fluorescence detector configured for recoding the x-ray fluorescence spectrum from the material into x-ray fluorescence data that is characteristic of the material; an optical sensor configured to capture visual image data of the material; and a processing unit configured with a machine learning system configured to identify a characteristic of the material from the x-ray fluorescence data and/or the visual image data.
