Abstract: A laser-based spectroscopy system that combines a distance/proximity standoff sensor, a high-repetition rate laser spectroscopy system, and software with a decision-making algorithm embedded in a processing unit which in combination performs selective firing of the laser when the target object is within an interrogation zone. In a related embodiment, the system provides selective sorting of spectroscopic signals based on information from the standoff signal and from information contained in the spectral signals themselves. The laser emission can be actively controlled while keeping the laser firing, thereby preserving the thermal stability and hence the power of the laser; and the standoff sensor information and the spectral information can be combined to determine the proper relative weighting or importance of each piece of spectral information.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include an optical probe capable of communicating identification information to a patient monitor in addition to signals indicative of intensities of light after attenuation by body tissue. The identification information may indicate operating wavelengths of light sources, indicate a type of probe, such as, for example, that the probe is an adult probe, a pediatric probe, a neonatal probe, a disposable probe, a reusable probe, or the like. The information could also be utilized for security purposes, such as, for example, to ensure that the probe is configured properly for the oximeter, to indicate that the probe is from an authorized supplier, or the like. In one preferred embodiment, coding resistors could be provided across the light sources to allow additional information about the probe to be coded without added leads. However, any device could be used without it being used in parallel.

Abstract: To generate a reference database for a particular sensor in a multiple LED spectrophotometric system with a reduced number of test measurements taken from training samples, a first set of reflectance reference measurements are generated from a test target on to a reference sensor from a plurality of different LED emissions. A first spectral reconstruction reference matrix is computed comprising an operational characterization of the reference sensor from the first set of reflectance reference measurements. A second set of reflectance reference measurements from the test target is generated from a second subject sensor whose operation is to be personalized by the objective reference database. The second set of reflectance reference measurements are less in number than the first set. A second reconstruction matrix is computed comprising an operational characterization of the subject sensor from the second set of measurements. The second reconstruction matrix is adjusted by relating the second set of reflectance measurements to a set of corresponding reflectance measurements of the reference sensor, whereby the adjusting of the second matrix comprises computing an optimal solution spectral reconstruction matrix for the second sensor. The reference database is generated from the optimal solution spectral reconstruction matrix.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of biochemical laboratory. More particularly the invention relates to the improved and more accurate instrumental features of equipment used as e.g. fluorometers, photometers and luminometers. The object of the invention is achieved by providing an optical measurement instrument where there is an interface (218, 223, 233a, 233b, 238) for a changeable optical module (240), and excitation and/or emission beam is guided through an aperture of the optical module. This allows performing various types of measurements by changing an optical module without a problem lenses becoming unclean due to manual handling of the optical modules. The invention also makes possible to achieve an accurate measurement location and area within a sample.
