    Abstract: The present concept is a compact portable colour sensor for measuring colour of a substrate. The sensor includes a lower housing including an interior, the lower housing for cooperatively mating together with a upper housing, a detector portion including a printed circuit board rigidly connected to an interior of the lower housing and substantially enveloped by the upper and lower housings when in a mated position The printed circuit board includes at least one LED and one colour sensor mounted on a bottom side of the printed circuit board, and at least one transparent light transmitting light pipe and a transparent lens is mounted interferingly between the bottom side of the printed circuit board and the interior of the lower housing, and wherein the compact portable colour sensor is configured such that light transmitted by the LED impinges upon the substrate and is at least partially reflected back to the colour sensor to take a measurement. Preferably wherein the lower housing has an inverted truncated conical shape and the upper housing has an upright truncated conical shape.

    Abstract: A lightweight, compact hyperspectral imaging system includes a fore-optics module and a wavelength-dispersing module. The imaging system may also include a detector, supporting electronics and a battery module. The fore-optics module may include a telescope with three or more mirrors, where the mirrors include a silver coating that provides high reflectivity over wavelengths in the visible and shortwave infrared portions of the spectrum. The modules of the imaging system may be incorporated in a housing having a longest linear dimension of 16 inches or less. The housing may be cylindrical in shape and have a length of 14 inches or less inches and a diameter of 8 inches or less.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, an apparatus includes a module assembly and a main assembly. The module assembly includes a module assembly housing, a first faceplate and an analysis unit attached to the first faceplate. The main assembly includes a main assembly housing, a second faceplate and an engine unit rigidly attached to the second faceplate. The engine unit generates a light that passes to the analysis unit via a first lens assembly and a second lens assembly. The first lens assembly is attached to the first faceplate and the second lens assembly is attached to the second faceplate. The module assembly when attached to the main assembly causes the first and second faceplates to act as a single mechanical unit that moves independent of movement of the module assembly housing and/or the main assembly housing.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a portable device for detecting the presence of explosive materials, including bulk explosive materials and out-gassed by products of explosive materials. The portable device may comprise a tunable filter and a NIR detector, configured so as to generate a NIR hyperspectral image representative of a target. The portable device may also comprise a RGB detector configured to generate a video image of a region of interest. The disclosure also provides for a method of detecting explosive materials using NIR hyperspectral imaging which may comprise collecting interacted photons, passing the interacted photons through a tunable filter, and detecting the interacted photons to generate a NIR hyperspectral image representative of a target. The method may also comprise surveying a region of interest using a RGB detector to identify a target for further inspection using NIR hyperspectral imaging.

    Abstract: Optical characteristic measuring systems and methods such as for determining the color or other optical characteristics of teeth are disclosed. Perimeter receiver fiber optics preferably are spaced apart from a source fiber optic and receive light from the surface of the object/tooth being measured. Light from the perimeter fiber optics pass to a variety of filters. The system utilizes the perimeter receiver fiber optics to determine information regarding the height and angle of the probe with respect to the object/tooth being measured. Under processor control, the optical characteristics measurement may be made at a predetermined height and angle. Various color spectral photometer arrangements are disclosed. Translucency, fluorescence, gloss and/or surface texture data also may be obtained. Audio feedback may be provided to guide operator use of the system. The probe may have a removable or shielded tip for contamination prevention. A method of producing dental prostheses based on measured data also is disclosed. Measured data also may be stored and/or organized as part of a patient data base. Such methods and implements may be desirably utilized for purposes of detecting and preventing counterfeiting or the like.
