    Abstract: A method for obtaining spectral radiation data for points in a field of view utilizes a broad band variable filter to produce different intensity distributions on a photocell array. The array is in the focal plane of a camera and photocell locations correspond to points in the field of view. The variable filter has a sequence of optical train elements comprised of a first linear polarizer, a body of optically active material, a retarder and a second linear polarizer. A series of radiance measurements are taken at each photocell of the array and at least one of the optical train components is repositioned between measurements. For each photocell, a collection of photocell values is stored in a computer memory and is converted to a system of linear equations. Intensities for spectral components of light incident thereon are derived for each photocell. The method can be used to create a two-dimensional intensity map for the pixel array for each wavelength measured. Also, the method can be used to create a broad band spectroradiometer for points in the field of view.

    Abstract: An apparatus for detecting a polarization altering substance, such as ice, on a surface includes a polarizing filter on the surface between the surface and the polarization altering substance. When the polarizing filter includes alternating regions having orthogonal polarizing properties, only one viewing of the surface through a blocking filter is required. When light, either polarized or unpolarized, reflects off the surface, it passes through the polarizing filter and becomes polarized. Reflected light that additionally passes through ice after leaving the polarizer becomes unpolarized. When viewed through a blocking polarizer filter, polarized light passing through ice appears bright due to the unpolarizing effect of ice. On the other hand, polarized light not passing through ice retains its polarization and appears dark when viewed through a blocking filter. Since the polarizing filter is between the surface and the viewer, the surface can be metallic, dielectric, or painted without affecting the results. If the proper blocking orientation for the viewer is not known in advance, the Stokes coefficients can be calculated if views are taken through a series of specified polarizing filters. The ratio of polarized light returned to the viewer compared to the unpolarized light returned to the viewer can then be calculated from any arbitrary position. A retroreflective substance on the surface further enhances the effect for systems employing an active illumination source located coaxially with or adjacent to the imaging system.

    Abstract: A Fourier-transform spectrometer contains a birefringent optical component, removing the need for a Michelson interferometer used in conventional instruments. A suitable birefringent element such as a Wollaston prism, is used to introduce a path difference between two light polarisations. Use of an extended light source so that all areas of the birefringent component are illuminated simultaneously ensures that different positions on the birefringent component correspond to different path differences between the two polarisations. A Fourier-transform of the resulting interferogram at the detector results in the spectral distribution of the input light being obtained. The use of an extended light source permits a Fourier-transform spectrometer with no moving parts to be achieved.

    Abstract: A spectroscope device of the dispersion type receives light to be measured and emits it as dispersed light which corresponds to each of wavelengths to be measured. An optical-path switching device directs the dispersed light emitted from the spectroscope device to pass through first and second paths. A first photoelectric converter receives the light which is directed to pass through the first path by the optical-path switching device. A polarizing/separating device polarizes and separates the light, which is directed to pass through the second path by the optical-path switching device, into two polarized lights. Second and third photoelectric converters respectively receive the two polarized lights divided by the polarizing/separating device. An arithmetical process section corrects a first optical spectrum strength according to an output from the first photoelectric converter with at least a ratio of second and third optical spectrum strengths which correspond to outputs from the second and third photoelectric converter to calculate absolute spectrum values of the measured light at every wavelength of the light to be measured.
