Abstract: Automation of the comparison of the colors of small surfaces of products. In one embodiment, color differences are measured rather than an absolute color value. An apparatus is provided for capturing color images of a portion of a product or part to provide a sample product image. The sample image is compared to an image of a standard product obtained under the same conditions with the same apparatus. The color difference is measured to determine when it is in a predetermined range.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to systems and methods for fusing Raman data with biomarker data to identify a disease and/or the progression of the disease. The system disclosed herein may include an illumination source for generating interacted photons from a biological sample and a detector for detecting the interacted photons to generate a Raman data set. A processor is included to fuse the Raman data set with a biomarker data set to identify a disease and/or a disease progression. The instant disclosure further includes a method comprising illuminating a biological sample to generate interacted photons, and detecting the interacted photons to generate a Raman data set. A biomarker data set is obtained from the biological sample, and the Raman data set is fused with the biomarker data set to generate an index score. The index score correlates with one or more of a disease and a disease progression.

Abstract: An optical instrument for spectroscopy applications includes a compact arrangement having a three-dimensional folded optical path. A plate configured as an optical reference plane is secured to a housing and is configured to secure optical components above or below the plate. A modular light source module may be secured within the housing without fasteners. A monochromator and spectrometer are secured below the plate. Mirrors disposed above the plate are configured to direct light from the monochromator passing through a first opening in the plate through a sample disposed above the plate, and to direct light from the sample through a second opening in the plate to the spectrometer. A controller is configured for communication with the monochromator and the spectrometer. The controller may control an entrance slit actuator for the spectrometer and positioning of an aperture upstream of the spectrometer to adjust resolution and throughput.

Abstract: A colorimeter includes an integrating sphere, a light source, a light receiver and a low reflectance unit. The integrating sphere has a first aperture to be covered with a sample and a second aperture opposing the first aperture configured to allow reflected light from the sample to pass therethrough. The light source irradiates an inner wall of the integrating sphere with light. The light receiver receives, through the second aperture, the reflected light from a surface of the sample that enters the integrating sphere through the first aperture when the light from the light source is reflected by the inner wall, and is applied to the sample through the first aperture, and outputs a signal in accordance with the reflected light. The low reflectance unit is disposed around the light receiver to face an internal space of the integrating sphere, and has lower light reflectance than the inner wall.

Abstract: A modular device includes base and color sensing portions. The color sensing portion has a face, a controlled light source offset from the face to define an interior, the face configured to engage a target surface about a perimeter of the device housing wherein ambient light is restricted from entering the interior. A color sensor receives light reflected from the target surface and generates output signals representative of a surface color. The base portion communicates with the color sensor and a user device having a hosted program which generates a user interface enabling users to provide control input for the color sensor. The program further receives the output signals from the color sensing device and displays a first image of the detected color, and displays a second image of a user-selected color beside the first image. Color data values are further displayed corresponding to the difference between displayed colors.

Abstract: A printer that incorporates a spectrometry device includes a spectroscope, a distance measurer, and a spectrometry unit. The spectroscope includes a wavelength-selective interference filter on which light from a position of measurement in a medium is incident. The distance measurer measures the distance between the position of measurement and the spectroscope, and the spectrometry unit performs spectrometry at the position of measurement by using the spectroscope and correct a measured value obtained by the spectrometry based on the measured distance.
