      Abstract: A remote sensing method for detecting and analyzing gases, vapors and flame plumes using an imaging spectrometer. The spectrometric instrument uses Image Multispectral Sensing (IMSS) technology, enhanced by advanced imaging processing techniques and micro-miniature circuitry. These enhancements provide a portable instrument with the capability to remotely detect and image gases, including gas leaks. The technology also provides an analysis of the gas including chemical species and concentrations. The instrument can also remotely detect, image and analyze flames and plumes in the same manner, providing an analysis of the chemical species and concentrations in the flame. Advanced image processing techniques are used to provide gas and plume images and analysis to the operator. These processing algorithms are implemented in micro-miniature circuits such as digital signal processors (DSP's) and field programmable gate arrays (FPGA's) to provide a field portable instrument.

      Abstract: A tunable optical filter for simulating the waveband spectrums of selected substances. The filter includes an optical waveguide with a core material for transmitting light energy and a nominal core refractive index for the core material. Predetermined periodic variations are formed in the core material of the optical waveguide between the input and output ends that alter the core refractive index of the waveguide at the location of the periodic variations. Depending upon the periodic variations, the waveguide produces a predetermined reference waveband spectrum output that matches the waveband spectrum of a selected substance. A modulator is coupled to the waveguide to selectively modulate the periodic variations to intermittently shift the reference waveband spectrum output to fine tune the filter and reduce signal noise. The filter is useful as a reference cell for correlation spectroscopy, DIAL LIDAR, equipment calibration, and other uses where a predetermined or known waveband spectrum is useful or desirable.

      Abstract: An angularly multiplexed store contains filters derived from prior examination of input image reference samples, a spectrum analyzer produces spectral data representing the frequency spectrum of the input image under examination, a computer produces an encoded map of the spectral data representing the input image frequency spectrum. The encoded map is transformed, inputted into the store while close match spectral correlation light beams emerge from the multiplexed store, each having an emerging angle associated with that filter within the multiplexed store producing a close match with the first transform. An array of light beam detectors and a display present images having colors that indicate the nature of the input image such as a type of cancer. An associated memory-retro-reflector arrangement displays characters naming the materials making up the input image such as types of abnormal tissue. The disclosed apparatus can have significant application in medicine, food industry, spectroscopy, material science and other various areas.

      Abstract: An infrared imaging microscope uses spatial encoding to divide an sample being examined into a plurality of pixel regions. The spatial encoding is provided by a digitally controlled mask, which is preferably a multiple mirror array, and which masks the imaging radiation directed from a radiation source to the sample. The signal reflected or transmitted from the sample is detected using a single-element detector. As the mask pattern provided by the mask changes, the output signal of the detector is monitored, and the spectroscopic composition of each of the pixel regions is resolved using a spatial decoding method, such as a Hadamard transform. The digital control of the mask allows fast, easily-implemented changes to the masking pattern, and provides a low processing load relative to imaging devices that use multiple-element detectors. The invention may be implemented in a stand-alone microscope, or as a probe in which most of the elements of the device are located in a main housing, while the mask is located in a remote probe housing connected to the main housing by fiber optic cables. This allows reflective-mode scanning of free-standing objects. In one alternative embodiment, a multiple-element detector is used with the digitally-controlled mask. In this embodiment, visible light is spatially encoded by the mask along with the imaging radiation. By masking the visible light in this manner, visual examination of the sample allows correlation between the area of the sample being examined and the output of the appropriate element of the detector.
