Abstract: A radiation sensor includes first and second pixels with a radiation absorption filter positioned over the first pixel and an interference filter positioned over both the first and second pixels. The combined spectral response of the absorption filter and the first pixel has a first pixel pass-band and a first pixel stop-band. The spectral response of the interference filter has an interference filter pass-band which is substantially within the first pixel pass-band for radiation incident on the interference filter at a first angle of incidence, and substantially within the first pixel stop-band for radiation incident on the interference filter at a second angle of incidence greater than the first angle of incidence.

Abstract: An apparatus using reconfigurable integrated sensor elements with an efficient energy harvesting capability is described. Each sensor element has sensing and energy harvesting mode. In the sensing mode, the sensor element measures an environmental characteristic by generating electrical charge and outputs a time-encoded signal indicative of the measurement. In the energy harvesting mode, the sensor element itself is used to harvest energy from ambient energy source and makes it available to other sensor elements or circuit components. The sensing element is switched from the sensing mode to the energy harvesting mode when the electrical charge reaches a predetermined threshold. An image sensor device using asynchronous readout for harvesting energy from incident light while generating images is also described.

Abstract: An ultraviolet ray measuring method using an ultraviolet ray receiving element having a specific spectral sensitivity. The method includes: estimating an estimated value of an entire region from the spectral sensitivity of the ultraviolet ray receiving element and a solar spectral radiation spectrum; estimating an estimated value of a specific region from a specific action curve and the spectral sensitivity and the solar spectral radiation spectrum; and determining specific ultraviolet ray information by, on the basis of the estimated value of the entire region and the estimated value of the specific region, correcting an actually measured value which is measured by the ultraviolet ray receiving element. Further, specific ultraviolet information, which is obtained on the basis of sun altitude information, is also corrected.

Abstract: A self-contained, electro-optic instrument measures and displays the intensity emitted by an ultraviolet (UV) light source. The instrument is a portable, battery-operated device which has the size and shape of a flashlight. The measurement head receives various light guide adapters to provide a proper fit for a light guide of the UV spot curing system being used. Alternatively, the measurement head may be fitted with a wide angle lens to receive UV light for environment safety testing. In operation with a spot curing system, the instrument is gripped in one hand while the light guide is inserted in the adapter in the measurement head with the other hand. Once the spot curing system's light guide is inserted, a start switch on the body of the instrument is depressed and a measurement is taken. When the start switch is released, the measurement temporarily stored and displayed on a display, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD). Operation is similar for environmental safety testing except the instrument is simply pointed in a direction where the UV light is to be measured.

The housing unit includes a light sensor configured to sense light incident on the light sensor and to convert the incident light to a signal. The housing unit also includes an operational amplifier including a first input node, a second input node, and an output node. The operational amplifier is configured to: receive the signal at the first input node, amplify a difference between the signal at the first input node and a signal at the second input node by a gain factor, and output the amplified signal on the output node. The housing unit also includes a potentiometer connected to the operational amplifier and configured to regulate the amplified signal; and a display connected to the potentiometer and configured to show an intensity of light detected by the light sensor based on the regulated amplified signal. The arm at a first end is connected to the housing unit and configured to move the housing unit around an aquarium case. The mirror is located on a bar and positioned within the aquarium in front of the light sensor and at a focal distance from the light sensor and configured to increase an amount of light incident on the light sensor.
