    Abstract: A solid state color imager with preferential response to two or more colors of light includes a first color-selective photoreceptor built in part from a first color-selective semiconductor region limited in depth according to a first color fractional absorption ratio for a first color of light, as well as a second color-selective photoreceptor built in part from a second color-selective semiconductor region limited in depth according to a second color fractional absorption ratio for a second color of light. The imager may provide a light shield above the second color-selective semiconductor region and position the second color-selective photoreceptor in proximity to the first color-selective photoreceptor. The second color-selective photoreceptor may then collect electrons diffusing from the first color-selective photoreceptor and generated by the second color of light. The imager need not include conventional color filters and thus provides a more cost effective color imager for human color vision applications (e.g., digital cameras), as well as machine vision applications with tailored response to selected wavelengths of light other than that recognized by human beings.

    Abstract: A system for automatically re-calibrating a spectrophotometer which is mounted at one side of the printed sheets output path of a color printer for measuring the colors printed on colored test patches on printed test sheets moving thereby as the test patches are sequentially illuminated with multiple different color illumination sources, which illumination colors are reflected from the test patches and detected by a photosensor providing electrical output signals. Re-calibration is provided by illuminating, with the same sequenced illumination sources, during a time coinciding with an adjacent gap between the printed sheets moving in the output path, a stationary calibration test patch which is mounted on the opposite side of the output path from the spectrophotometer, to provide respective calibration signals from respective electrical output signals of the photosensor during a time interval when a printed color sheet is not in said output path in between the spectrophotometer and the calibration test patch. This re-calibration timing may be provided by the existing sheets positions tracking control system of the printer. The calibration test patch may be a standard white tile test surface, and may be mounted slightly outside of the output path to avoid contamination.

    Abstract: A handheld, portable color measuring device for measuring the primary colors of red, green and blue in a color target to be analyzed and connected to a built-in LCD display or connected to a separate personal computer. The color measuring device includes an elongated color measuring probe housing. A hollow cone shaped probe tip is attached to one end of the probe housing. A target contact end of the probe tip is placed against a color target to be measured. Inside the probe housing is a battery powered white LED light source connected to a color measurement switch. When the measurement switch is actuated, the white light source illuminates the color target surrounded by the target contact end of the probe tip. A light pipe is centered inside the probe housing and inside a portion of the probe tip. The light pipe captures the reflected light off the color target and projects the captured light onto a 3 color (RGB) sensor. The sensor collects an analog light signal which is made up of percentages of red, green and blue. The light signal is amplified and converter to a digital signal using an A/D converter. The A/D converter is part of a microprocessor mounted on a printed circuit board inside the probe housing. The digital signal is processed by the microprocessor and the percentages of red, green and blue are displayed on the LDC display or on the screen of the computer.

    Abstract: A light detecting device, particularly one which indicates illumination by a laser, and methods for its use. The device includes at least two light detectors which each comprise a light sensor and a light control filter. The light control filter includes microlouvers arranged so that the microlouvers of the two different light detectors are at different angles. The light detecting device may be used to determine the direction to the source of the light detected. Further, two or more devices may be combined into a system that allows for a user to determine the distance to the source of light, particularly laser light emitted by a laser rangefinder. The system is designed to be functional under combat or other battlefield conditions and relatively simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
