Abstract: Full-spectrum technology has revolutionized food quality assessment through its non-destructive nature, high efficiency, and ability to analyze multiple components simultaneously. Firstly, elaborates on the basic principles and system characteristics of full-spectrum technology, then examines the limitations issue of traditional maturity determination methods, such as poor timeliness, sample destruction, and operational complexity. It focuses on discussing the application of full-spectrum technology in evaluating the maturity of food ingredients. The research further explores diverse integration pathways of full-spectrum technology with artificial intelligence algorithms and other detection technologies, while looking ahead to its industrialization prospects in intelligent food processing. Finally, identifies current challenges in technical application, including the complexity of data processing and high equipment costs, and proposes corresponding solutions and development directions.

Key words: Maturity determination, Full-spectrum technology, Food detection
