Abstract: An optical detection apparatus used for detecting a tissue includes a light-emitting unit, a spectroscopic unit and a light-sensing array. The light-emitting unit emits light entering into the tissue. The spectroscopic unit receives the light outputted from the tissue and divides the received light into a plurality of rays with different wavelengths. The light-sensing array senses the rays outputted from the spectroscopic unit so as to generate an array spectrum. By the spectroscopic unit, the detection of the rays of multiple wavelengths can be performed without using plural light-emitting diodes for emitting light of different wavelengths. Besides, the user can perceive the detection result (e.g. the location of the abnormal tissue) intuitively by integrating the light-sensing array and the spectroscopic unit.

Abstract: An optical analysis system for measuring compositions of a sample includes a light source radiating a first light. A modulator disposed in a ray path of the light modulates the light to a desired frequency. A spectral element filters the light for a spectral range of interest of the sample. An optical filter receives a first light beam split from the light reflecting from the sample and optically filters data carried by the first light beam into at least one orthogonal component of the first light beam. A first detector measures a property of the orthogonal component. A second detector receives a second light beam split from the light reflecting from the sample for comparison of the property of the orthogonal component to the second light beam. An accelerometer senses when to acquire data from the sample.

Abstract: A hand-held color measurement device is provided that includes a housing with a measurement unit which receives measurement light through a measurement window, converts it into measurement signals, processes the measurement signals to form digital color measurement data, and provides it via a communications interface. A U-shaped bracket is arranged on the housing and includes a middle portion in which a diffuser is integrated. The two side arms of the bracket are rotatably mounted on the housing such that the bracket can be pivoted by 180° from a monitor position to an ambient light position and back to the monitor position, and wherein the diffuser lies in front of the measurement window in the ambient light position and is situated at a rear wall of the housing opposite the front wall in the monitor position. A holding mechanism is provided on the housing and on the two side arms of the bracket which fixes the bracket in its monitor position or ambient light position, respectively. The hand-held color measurement device is simple in design and specially suitable for monitor, projection area and ambient light measurements.
