    Abstract: An optical module includes an actuator that includes a movable part to be moved along a predetermined direction; a first interference optical system that includes a first movable mirror, a first stationary mirror, and a first beam splitter; and a second interference optical system that includes a second movable mirror, a second stationary mirror, and a second beam splitter. The first interference optical system is adapted so that first light reciprocates m times (m is a natural number) between the first beam splitter and the first movable mirror along the predetermined direction. The second interference optical system is adapted so that second light reciprocates n times (n is a natural number greater than m) between the second beam splitter and the second movable mirror along the predetermined direction.

    Abstract: This food-article analysis device is provided with a light-reception/detection unit that receives near-infrared light reflected off of at least one measurement region of a measurement target and/or near-infrared light that has passed through at least one measurement region of said measurement target and generates a signal corresponding to the intensity of the received light, a computation unit that computes sectional nutrition information containing information regarding the caloric content of at least one measurement region and/or information regarding the components thereof on the basis of the signal supplied by the light-reception/detection unit and generates a distribution image by combining a plurality of pieces of sectional nutrition information relating to a plurality of measurement regions with position information for said measurement regions, and a display unit that displays the distribution image supplied by the computation unit.

    Abstract: A housing has a partition wall constituting a wall surface of a sample chamber, and an interferometer chamber accommodating an optical component is formed on an opposite side to the sample chamber with respect to the partition wall. A window member is attachable to and detachable from an opening formed in the partition wall, and transmits light between the sample chamber and the interferometer chamber. The lid member is attachable to and detachable from the window member, and internally has a moisture absorbent accommodating space for accommodating a moisture absorbent. The lid member engages with the window member attached to the opening from a side of the sample chamber, so that the side of the sample chamber of the window member is covered with the lid member, and the moisture absorbent accommodating space is set in a substantially airtight state.

    Abstract: The inventive phase measuring device includes a first A/D converter 2 that digitizes a first periodical input signal X at each predetermined sampling timing and outputs the resultant signal as a digital signal Xd, a first zero-crossing identification means operable to detect a sign of Xd, a counting processing unit 4 that counts a difference in the number of times of zero-crossing detection by the first zero-crossing identification means and calculates the difference at each sampling timing, and a fraction processing unit 5 that computes a fraction of the number of times of zero-crossing detection on the basis of Xd at sampling timings immediately before and immediately after determination of zero-crossing by the first zero-crossing identification means. An averaging processing unit 6 performs averaging by adding up and totalizing the outputs from the counting processing unit 4 and the fraction processing unit 5, thereby computing a phase. The inventive device thus implements a digital phase measuring device and a digital phase difference measuring device that allow input of periodical signals in a wide frequency range and that are capable of accurate and real-time measurement.

    Abstract: A spectral imaging system includes a spectrometer and an optics imaging system. The spectrometer is operable for generating spectral signatures of objects from a scene. The optics imaging system is operable to generate six or more responses from the same scene. Each of the six or more responses represents different spectral content of the objects in the scene. The responses generated by the optics imaging system can be used to generate a hypercube using spectral reconstruction techniques. In an embodiment, the spectral imaging system could be implemented as part of a mobile phone.
