Abstract: Disclosed is a movable body spectrum measuring apparatus, which is capable of discriminating an object being measured highly precisely by the photographic data regarding a spectrum sensor and is capable of processing the photographic data in real time. The movable body spectrum measuring apparatus discriminates the object being measured based on the spectrum data relating to the observation light detected by a spectrum sensor. The movable body spectrum measuring apparatus comprises a dictionary data storing unit for storing the spectrum data containing the wavelength information and the light intensity information of the object being measured, and a limitation information storing unit for storing limitation information to regulate the wavelength information into partial wavelength information. The movable body spectrum measuring apparatus further comprises a discrimination level setting unit for setting selectively the limitation information corresponding to the discrimination level required of the object being measured, a restricting unit for restricting the spectrum data regarding the observation light to the spectrum data composed exclusively of the wavelength information limited by the limitation information, and a discrimination unit for discriminating the object being measured based on the comparison between the restricted spectrum data and the spectrum data regarding the dictionary data storing unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to controllable Fabry-Perot interferometers which are produced with micromechanical (MEMS) technology. Micromechanical interferometers of the prior art have a disadvantage of significantly attenuating infrared radiation. In the inventive solution there is a gap in at least one mirror, serving as a layer of the mirror. The other layers of the mirrors can be made of polycrystalline silicon, which has a negligible attenuation at the infrared range. It is also preferable to provide a hole or a recess in a substrate at the optical area of the interferometer.

Abstract: A discrimination filtering device includes a filter and a filter having different pass bands, a detection unit, a processing unit, and a result output unit. The detection unit detects an electromagnetic wave from an object that is the target of identification through the filters. The pass band of the filters is designed to be suitable for object discrimination. The processing unit substitutes the output from the detection unit into a discrimination function determined based on the pass band of the filters and the teaching spectrum obtained in advance to infer the group which the object belongs to based on the substituted result.
