Abstract: A modular device includes base and color sensing portions. The color sensing portion has a face, a controlled light source offset from the face to define an interior, the face configured to engage a target surface about a perimeter of the device housing wherein ambient light is restricted from entering the interior. A color sensor receives light reflected from the target surface and generates output signals representative of a surface color. The base portion communicates with the color sensor and a user device having a hosted program which generates a user interface enabling users to provide control input for the color sensor. The program further receives the output signals from the color sensing device and displays a first image of the detected color, and displays a second image of a user-selected color beside the first image. Color data values are further displayed corresponding to the difference between displayed colors.

Abstract: A system and method for non-destructive, in situ, positive material identification of a pipe selects three test areas that are separated axially and circumferentially from one another and then polishes a portion of each test area. Within each polished area, a non-destructive test device is used to collect mechanical property data and another non-destructive test device is used to collect chemical property data. An overall mean for the mechanical property data, and for the chemical property data, is calculated using at least two data collection runs. The means are compared to a known material standard to determine, at a high level of confidence, ultimate yield strength and ultimate tensile strength within +/−10%, a carbon percentage within +/−25%, and a manganese percentage within +/−20% of a known material standard.

Abstract: A method for determining spectral characteristics of an object is disclosed. A probe is positioned in proximity relative to the object and provides light to a surface of the object and receives light from the object. One or more critical heights are defined below which no specularly refelcted light is received and propagated. Prior to positioning the probe in proximity relative to the object, a plurality of position-sensitive calibration/normalization reference and a plurality of calibration/normalization measurements are taken with the probe at a plurality of predetermined positions with respect to the calibration/normalization reference. The intensity of light received is determined in a plurality of spectral bands with one or more measurements. The spectral characteristics of the object are determined based on the one or more measurements and based on data taken from one or more of the calibration/normalization measurements.
