    Abstract: In accordance with embodiments of the present invention, a goniospectrophotometer is provided for quickly obtaining a goniospectrum using a goniospectrophotometer. In some embodiments, a parabolic reflector is used to optically transform the angular space of a source at the parabola focus into a linear space and facilitate the use of a single diffracting element and area camera to simultaneously measure the angular spectrum of the source. Spectra corresponding to zenith angles of light reflection by the parabolic reflector can be acquired by a detector and analyzed in a computer.

    Abstract: A method for mobile on- and off-line monitoring of coloured and high-gloss automobile component surfaces includes a camera-supported optical scanning of the automobile surface by means of an angle-dependent spectrophotometer, connected to and initialising an optical neuro-fuzzy structured image data bank, which permits a preparation of the measured signal coming from the detector by means of a computer-aided optical quality data bank and allows an evaluation of the measured automobile surfaces. The data link occurs via a neuronal network to a control unit for surface measurement systems, connected to a production planning system, a customer information system and the product unit for automobile painting/coating.
