Abstract:
A scanner device includes a support surface for the measured object and a drive unit for moving a color measuring head across the support surface in at least one dimension thereof and for adjusting the height of the color measuring head in the direction perpendicular to the support surface, as well as a measuring and drive control unit activating the drive unit and cooperating with the color measuring head (MH). The color measuring head (MH) is equipped with at least an illuminating channel (IC) and a collection channel (CC). The illuminating channel (IC) has a light source (10) and optical means (12-22) for illuminating the measured object (S) at a measurement site at a mean angle of incidence of 45 E. The collection channel (CC) has optical means (24-34) for capturing the light emanating from the measured object at the measurement site at a mean collection angle of 0 E and coupling it into a light guide (LF), which directs the captured measurement light to a wavelength-selective photoelectric transformer preferably provided in the form of a spectrometer, which resolves it into a number of wavelength ranges and generates an electric measurement signal corresponding to each wavelength range. The color measuring head is suitable for taking high-precision measurements of even the smallest measurement fields without contact.
Abstract:
A color sensor for measuring light from a light source and the method for fabricating the color sensor. The color sensor includes a plurality of photodetectors, a plurality of primary color filters and a trim filter. Each primary color filter includes a layer of material between the light source and a corresponding one of the photodetectors. Each primary color filter preferentially transmits light in a corresponding band of wavelengths about a characteristic wavelength. The trim filter is located between the light source and the photodetectors and includes a layer of material that preferentially attenuates light at a first trim wavelength between two of the characteristic wavelengths. In one embodiment, the trim filter further preferentially attenuates light at a second trim wavelength, the first wavelength being less than one of the characteristic wavelengths and the second wavelength being greater than that characteristic wavelength.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for determining a color calibration for different spectral light inputs in an imaging apparatus measurement are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, for example, a method for determining a color calibration for different spectral light inputs in an imaging apparatus measurement can include creating a reference color calibration and a reference luminance scaling calibration for each of a plurality of colors. The method can also include measuring a reference gray value R, G, B for each color in an image measurement of the light source. The method can further include calculating an R, G, B gray value for a first pixel in each of three filtered image measurements. The method can then include calculating pixel ratio values from each of the three first pixel gray values and comparing the reference gray values to the pixel ratio values to determine which one or more reference gray values are closest to the pixel ratio values. The method further includes calculating X, Y, Z values for the first pixel in the image measurement, and then repeating the steps of the method beginning with calculating an R, G, B gray value for each subsequent pixel in the image measurement.

Abstract:
The light intensity ratio adjustment filter is placed between the reference surface and the sample surface of the interferometer. This light intensity ratio adjustment filter has a light intensity ratio adjustment film including an optical reflection-absorption layer and a dielectric anti-reflection layer on the surface of a transparent substrate made of glass on the sample side, and an optical anti-reflection film on the reference surface side, and acts so as to reflect part of the incident light from the surface opposite the reference surface, and after absorbing part of the remaining light, transmit the remainder towards the sample, and furthermore, absorb part of the light returned from the sample while controlling reflection, and transmit the remainder in the direction of the reference surface as the sample light.
Abstract:
A disc serving as a spatial radiation modulator has dispersed radiation filters thereon. Each filter has a transmittance or reflectance modulation function of the form sin2(m&thgr;+p&pgr;/4), where m is a positive integer and p has one of the four values 0, 1, 2, 3. A radiation beam including selected wavelength components is diffracted into an elongated image dispersed according to wavelength. Different wavelength components are focused onto different filters on the modulator and are encoded by correspond filters. Since the modulation functions of the filters are orthogonal to one another, it is possible to extract the amplitude of each wavelength component after it has been encoded or modulated by corresponding filter from the total detected signal during one measurement.

Abstract:
In embodiments, spectroscopic monitor monitors modulated light signals to detect low levels of contaminants and other compounds in the presence of background interference. The monitor uses a spectrometer that includes a transmissive modulator capable of causing different frequency ranges to move onto and off of the detector. The different ranges can include those with the desired signal and those selected to subtract background contributions from those with the desired signal. Embodiments of the system are particularly useful for monitoring metal concentrations in combustion effluent.
