Abstract:
PURPOSE:To obtain a precise reflected light signal stably even when a frequency of lighting is low, and to improve a processing speed by integrating reflected light and disturbing light when light emitting elements are turned on and the disturbing light when turned off, and regarding a difference in an addition mean for every (n) times as the reflected light signal. CONSTITUTION:The light emitting elements 1-3 of R, G, and B are turned on impulsively in time series by lighting timing pulses alpha, beta, and gamma in the figure (a) from a microcomputer 6 through an LED driver 7. 5 is a photodetecting element and photodetects the reflected or disturbing light and amplifies it. A switching circuit 11 and a multiplexer 14 are switched by a signal from the microprocessor 6. Integrating circuits 12 and 13 are discharged by the signal from the microcomputer 6. The photodetection signals of the reflected light and disturbing light are integrated by the integrating circuit 12 as shown by the figure (b) matching with the lighting times of the light emitting elements 1-3, and pulses shown in the figure (c) are A/D- converted once the lighting ends; this is repeated (n) times. At the time of the disturbing light signal, pulses are integrated by the integrating circuit 13 as shown in the figure (d) when the light emitting elements are turned on, and pulses shown in the figure (e) are A/D-converted once the elements are turned off completely; this is also repeated (n) times. Then, a reflected light signal is obtained from a difference in addition means for (n) times.
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To improve the precision of a reflection signal and to speed up processing by turning on two of light emitting elements for three colors in combination successively and simultaneously. CONSTITUTION:When the light emitting elements 1-3 of R, G, and B are turned on, two of the elements are turned on in combination simultaneously and successively. Namely, the light emitting elements 1 and 2 of R and G are turned on n0 times simultaneously as shown by a' in the figure (a), the light emitting elements 2 and 3 of G and B are turned on n0 times simultaneously as shown by b', and then the light emitting elements 3 and 1 of B and R are turned on n0 times as c' simultaneously. The figure (b) shows A/D-conversion pulses when the elements are turned on and the figure (b) shows A/D-conversion pulses when turn off. Therefore, reflected light signals Rs, Gs and Bs are found by obtaining signals by the calculation formulae Rs+Gs, Gs+rs, and Bs+Rs.

Abstract:
A lighting device (100) is suitable for adjusting a light colour with respect to elements contained within an output field, separately for each element. The lighting device comprises at least two light systems (1a-1d) each adapted for operating as a light detector and also as a light source, a scanning system (2) suitable for scanning the output field, and a processing unit (3). Such lighting device is especially adapted for exhibiting articles with producing enhanced appeal to an observer. To this purpose, light which is directed towards each element may be enhanced in saturation and brightness as compared to initial light reflected by the element, while hue may be substantially maintained.
Abstract:
A contactless dental device 2 for determining tooth colors includes illuminating means for illuminating with ambient illumination light a tooth 6 to be examined. At least one color sensor 8 for acquisition and spectral examination of light reflected by the tooth 6 is inventively provided, wherein filtering means 16 are associated with the color sensor for at least partial separation of a signal component originating from the illumination light from the signal component originating from the ambient light. Evaluating means 18 for determining the tooth color based on the signal component originating from the illumination light are disposed downstream of the filtering means 16.
