    Abstract: A system and method to automatically obtain spectra for samples. The method involves a two phase process including a photobleaching phase and a spectral acquisition phase. In the photobleaching phase, a series of spectral data sets of a sample are collected. A relative difference is determined between the background of subsequent spectral data sets is determined and compared to a predetermined threshold value. If threshold difference is less than the relative difference between the background of subsequent spectral data sets, the steps of collecting a series of spectra data sets is automatically repeated. In the spectrum acquisition phase, a series of Raman data sets of the sample are collected until a target SNR is obtained.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for the remote analysis and identification of unknown compounds. A robotic arm positions a sensor on a surface. The sensor unit has a monitoring mechanism to monitor separation between the sensor unit and the surface when placed in contact with the surface to maintain the separation substantially constant. An illumination source illuminates the region of interest to produce scattered photons from an unknown compound. The scattered photons are collected by an optical system and delivered to a spectroscopic detector for analysis and identification. An algorithm is applied to the data generated by the spectroscopic detector to identify the unknown compound.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and system for enhancing the ability of nuclear, chemical, and biological ("NBC") sensors, specifically mobile sensors, to detect, analyze, and identify NBC agents on a surface, in an aerosol, in a vapor cloud, or other similar environment. Embodiments include the use of a two-stage approach including targeting and identification of a contaminant. Spectral imaging sensors may be used for both wide-field detection (e.g., for scene classification) and narrow-field identification.

    Abstract: The invention relates to methods and devices for assessing one or more components of blood or a selected tissue in an animal. The present invention permits non-invasive assessment of blood or tissue components in a body structure containing multiple tissue types by assessing multiple regions of the animal's body for an optical characteristic of the blood or the tissue of interest and separately assessing one or more optical (e.g., Raman or NIR) characteristics of the blood or tissue component for one or more regions that exhibit the optical characteristic of the blood or the tissue of interest.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a substrate material for the improved detection, resolution and imaging of biological material for spectroscopic characterization by Raman of optical imaging spectroscopy. The substrate provides a uniform, optically flat, highly reflective surface which can be made hydrophobic to prevent spreading of the sample and facilitating its optical evaluation. Moreover, the substrate can be coated with a material that does not emit Raman scattered photons when exposed to said illuminating photons. The principles disclosed herein allow a low spectroscopic background particularly suitable for examining small samples or samples having low concentrations of the suspected component.
