Abstract:
An optical sensor circuit comprises an optical sensor (DET) designed to provide a sensor signal indicative of a color of light incident on the optical sensor (DET), a clock designed to provide a clocked control signal comprising consecutive high and low states, and a controller unit (CU) connected to the optical sensor (DET) and comprising the clock. The controller unit (CU) is designed to process the sensor signal as a color signal (CTS) in a first mode if the clocked control signal is in a high state, wherein the color signal (CTS) is indicative of a color of light emitted by a light emitting device (LED) to be connected at a control terminal (OUT). The controller unit (CU is further designed to process the sensor signal as an ambient color light signal (aCTS) in a second mode if the clocked control signal is in a low state, wherein the ambient color light signal (aCTS) is indicative of a color of ambient light. The controller unit (CU) is also designed to generate a driving signal (PWM) to drive the light emitting device (LED), wherein the driving signal (PWM) depends on the color and ambient color light signals (CTS, aCTS).

Abstract:
An unevenness inspection system includes: an image pickup section configured to acquire a picked-up image of an inspection target; an image generation section configured to generate a color-unevenness inspection image and a luminance-unevenness inspection image, based on the picked-up image; a calculation section configured to use both of the color-unevenness inspection image and the luminance-unevenness inspection image to calculate an evaluation parameter; and an inspection section configured to use the calculated evaluation parameter to perform unevenness inspection. The image generation section performs image separation processing to separate a color component and a luminance component on the picked-up image, to generate a color-component image and a luminance-component image, and individually performs filter processing taking account of visual spatial frequency characteristics on the color-component image and the luminance-component image to respectively generate the color-unevenness inspection image and the luminance-unevenness inspection image, based on the filter-processed color-component image and the filter-processed luminance-component image. The calculation section calculates the evaluation parameter in consideration of unevenness visibility with respect to both of color and luminance.

Abstract:
A method for calibrating the colour of a colour monitor with LED backlighting includes at least one area of an image displayed on the colour monitor (1) remotely measured in a spatially resolved manner using a colour sensor (7) configured as an image or line sensor. Deviations of measured colour values from desired colour values are determined in a spatially resolved manner and LED backlighting of the colour monitor (1) is actuated for local correction of the deviations. When the colour sensor (7) is integrated into the remote control (2) of a colour television, the user aims the remote control (2) at the television, and the colour sensor (7) records a test image (3) of the colour television and evaluates it to determine colour corrections. The method makes it possible for the colour of a colour television to be calibrated ex works or in the user's home.
Abstract:
This specification describes various embodiments that relate to methods for providing a wideband colorimeter that can include more accurate outputs. In one embodiment, a narrowband instrument, such as a spectrometer or spectrograph, can be used for calibration of a wideband colorimeter, so that more accurate outputs can be provided. In one embodiment, an optical test equipment, which consists of both a wideband colorimeter and a narrowband spectrograph, can be used for providing a more accurately calibrated wideband colorimeter. As an example, a spectra-camera, which is a hybrid system consisting of both a wideband colorimeter and a narrowband spectrograph, can be used for simultaneous testing by both the wideband colorimeter and the narrowband spectrograph. By doing simultaneous testing, accurate calibration of the wideband colorimeter can be achieved. This specification further describes a mathematical model to characterize a wideband three channel colorimeter with a narrowband multiple channel spectrometer.
