    Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining and displaying polarization profiles of points in a scene from a single imaging detector array, which utilizes a filter system comprised of a retarder, four linear polarizers, four lenses, a color filter, camera lens and CCD video camera. Light from points in a scene are transmitted through the system and exits with attenuated intensities unique for each wavelength of the light. A narrowband color filter selects the wavelength of interest. The four lenses in the system produce four images of the scene, which are recorded as a single CCD-image. The attenuated intensities in each of the four scene-images are used to calculate the Stokes parameters for selected points in the scene for the selected wavelength. The inherent problem of the retarder introducing a different phase differential for each individual wavelength transmitted through the optical element is solved by expressing the Stokes parameters explicitly as a function of wavelength. A computer program separates the four scene-images in the CCD-image, crops, registers them and calculates the Stokes parameters for each point in the cropped scene. A unique pseudo-color scheme that utilizes the Poincarè sphere is used for encoding and displaying polarization parameters. This scheme associates the RGB values of an image with the normalized values of the Stokes parameters. The primary purpose of the method, apparatus and pseudo-color scheme is to obtain the four Stokes parameters simultaneously for each point in a scene and to be able to create video images of changing polarization parameters in real time.

    Abstract: The most common method of testing the various aspects of light traveling in a waveguide includes tapping a portion of the light and directing the tapped portion at an appropriate sensor. Conventionally, the simplest method for tapping light utilized a fused fiber coupler; however, even this method requires additional fiber splicing and management steps that increase manufacturing costs. The present invention uses a beam splitter, positioned inside a centerpiece sleeve in the path of the light, to direct a portion of the beam through the wall of the centerpiece sleeve to a monitoring sensor, preferably a photodiode. The centerpiece sleeve includes a window, which is at least partially transparent to the light, enabling the tapped portion of the light to reach the monitoring sensor. Preferably, the centerpiece sleeve is manufactured entirely out of glass.

The apparatus comprises: a polarizer comprising an array of polarized light filter cells and a light sensor array. The array of polarized light filter cells comprises at least a first polarization direction and a second polarization direction different from said first polarization direction. And the polarizer thereby produces polarized light of at least first and second different polarizations. The light sensor array is configured to receive the polarized light from the polarizer and produce data indicative of a pattern of at least one of light polarization intensity and direction. The pattern is indicative of at least one of azimuth and elevation of the celestial body to be located.
