Abstract: A spectral colorimetric apparatus includes a housing which includes a side wall. An outer surface of the side wall is an adjustment surface capable of adjusting a position of a linear sensor by moving while attaching the linear sensor to the adjustment surface. The linear sensor is supported by the side wall of the housing while abutting on the adjustment surface and receives alight beam that is dispersed by a concave surface reflection type diffraction element and passes through an opening portion. The adjustment surface is parallel to a tangential line at a part of a Rowland circle of the concave surface reflection type diffraction element, through which a light beam received by the linear sensor passes.

That is to say, a two-dimensional area image of a display screen picked up through input ends arranged at 10×10 lattice points on an input end face of optical fibers is converted into a one-dimensional image inside the fiber box and projected from output ends on the output end face in the form of a one-dimensional area image parallel to the z-axis. This one-dimensional area image has position information of 100 measurement points in the z-axis direction.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a spectral characteristic measuring system, a spectral characteristic measuring instrument, a data processing apparatus, and a program, which make it possible to appropriately correct an influence of an illumination light variation caused by a temperature rise in a semiconductor light-emitting element due to light emission, in a scanning type color measurement system or the like which sequentially measures many color samples 1n and in which a semiconductor light-emitting element such as an LED is used as a light source and a reference system is not provided.Spectral distributions of illumination lights which are measured before and after the color sample is measured are interpolated, to thereby estimate a spectral distribution of an illumination light at the time when a spectral distribution of the color sample is obtained. Spectral characteristics of the color sample are identified based on the spectral distribution of the reflected light or the transmitted light reflected by or transmitted through the color sample and the estimated spectral distribution.

Abstract: A scanner device for measuring the color properties of a measured object pixel by pixel has a support surface for the measured object, a color measuring head, a drive unit for moving the color measuring head above the support surface in at least one dimension thereof and for adjusting the height of the color measuring head in the direction perpendicular to the support surface, as well as a measurement and drive control unit which activates the drive unit and co-operates with the color measuring head. It is also equipped with an electronic distance control system which adjusts the distance of the color measuring head above the measurement point in the direction perpendicular to the support surface to a desired measuring distance for every measurement point by means of the drive unit. The electronic distance control system works with measurement values generated by the color measuring head and distance values computed from them. The scanner device is suitable for running high-precision measurements on even the smallest measurement fields without contact and no separate measurement sensor is needed for the distance control system.
