    Abstract: Systems and methods for extracting topographic information from inspected objects to identify defects in the inspected objects. A part to be inspected is illuminated with at least two different colors emitted from an illuminator providing a gradient of light consisting of the at least two different colors. A single color image of the illuminated part to be inspected is acquired, providing a color-coded topographic mapping of the part to be inspected due, at least in part, to the gradient of light. Topographic monochrome views of the part to be inspected may be generated from the single color image. Each view of the topographic monochrome views may enhance a different type of feature or defect present in the part to be inspected which can be analyzed and detected.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a chromaticity test method and a chromaticity test apparatus. The chromaticity test method comprises the following steps: S1 : measuring a size of a pixel of a product to be tested; S2: determining an aperture of a light transmission hole for testing according to the size of the pixel measured in S1; and, S3: selecting a corresponding light transmission hole according to the aperture determined in S2 and then performing a chromaticity test on the product to be tested. By the chromaticity test method provided by the present invention, the waste of time resulted from the inappropriate selection of a light transmission hole is reduced, and the test efficiency is improved while the accuracy of testing is ensured.

    Abstract: What is disclosed is a system and method for real-time enhancement of an identified time-series signal of interest in a video that has a similar spatial and temporal structure to a given reference signal, as determined by a measure of closeness. A closeness measure is computed for pixels of each image frame of each channel of a multi-channel video to identify a time-series signal of interest. The intensity of pixels associated with that time-series signal is modified based on a product of the closeness measure and the reference signal scaled by an amplification factor. The modified pixel intensity values are provided back into the source video to generate a reconstructed video such that, upon playback of the reconstructed video, viewers thereof can visually examine the amplified time-series signal, see how it is distributed and how it propagates. The methods disclosed find their uses in remote sensing applications such as telemedicine.
