    Abstract: Color calibration for digital pathology is provided. A standard glass slide is prepared with a specimen having zero or more stains. The specimen is scanned a first time using a hyperspectral imaging system to produce a first digital image having XYZ color values. The specimen is scanned a second time using a digital pathology imaging system to produce a second digital image having RGB color values. The first and second digital images are then registered against each other to align the digital image data. Individual pixels of the first and second images may be combined in the registration process so that the first and second digital images have substantially similar pixel sizes. A lookup table is generated to associate XYZ color values to RGB color values. Once the lookup table has been generated, it can be used to present RGB color on a display using the corresponding XYZ color.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for a stray-light testing apparatus. In one aspect, the apparatus includes an optical assembly including a spatially extended light source and one or more optical elements arranged to direct light from the spatially extended light source along an optical path, a moveable frame supporting the optical assembly including one or more adjustable alignment features for guiding positioning of the stray-light testing apparatus relative to an onboard camera on a vehicle, and a shrouding mechanism attached to the frame and positioned on the frame such that, when the stray-light testing apparatus is aligned relative to the onboard camera on the vehicle and the optical path of the optical assembly is within the field of view of the onboard camera, ambient light exposure for the onboard camera is below a threshold.

    Abstract: Described herein is a method of evaluating artificial lighting of a surface. The method may comprise measuring a first lumen output at a first location on the surface at a first altitude. The method may further comprise photographing the surface from a second altitude to obtain an aerial photograph of the surface comprising a plurality of pixels, each pixel of the plurality of pixels having a second lumen output, and performing an altitude adjustment on the second lumen output to obtain a third lumen output. The method may comprise dividing the aerial photograph into a plurality of zones, each zone corresponding to a section of the surface. The method may further comprise establishing a user-defined threshold lumen output for each zone of the plurality of zones, and identifying a percentage of the total number of pixels in each zone which meets or exceeds the user-defined threshold lumen output.
