    Abstract: An imaging system for use in a vehicle headlamp control system includes an opening, an image sensor, a red lens blocking red complement light between the opening and the image sensor, and a red complement lens blocking red light between the opening and the image sensor. Each lens focuses light onto a different subwindow of the image sensor. The imaging system allows processing and control logic to detect the presence of headlamps on oncoming vehicles and tail lights on vehicles approached from the rear for the purpose of controlling headlamps. A light sampling lens may be used to redirect light rays from an arc spanning above the vehicle to in front of the vehicle into substantially horizontal rays. The light sampling lens is imaged by the image sensor to produce an indication of light intensity at various elevations. The processing and control logic uses the light intensity to determine whether headlamps should be turned on or off. A shutter may be used to protect elements of the imaging system from excessive light exposure.

    Abstract: An optical array containing a system of absorptive filters and a system of interference filters. For the sun light the spectral characteristics of transmission of the optical array is close to the world-wide accepted Diffey Standard. That standard models human skin sensitivity to UV burning. The invention allows making inexpensive, miniature UV sensors that can be applied in a miniature devices measuring burning power of UV contained in the sun light.

    Abstract: A device for controlling an amount of light of a lighting unit for use in an endoscope, used to view an image of an object. The device includes a light shield for shielding light generated by a light source and transmitted to the endoscope. A stepping motor drives the light shield for a series of predetermined time intervals. Brightness of the image is detected during each of the time intervals and pulses are generated during each of the time intervals. A desired brightness of the image is input. The number of pulses generated is determined in accordance with the input desired brightness of the image. The pulses generated are used to drive the stepping motor in each of the plurality of time intervals.
