Our patent, US10664965B2, granted on May 19, 2020, is a landmark innovation in optical measurement systems. This patent focuses on the precise calibration and assessment of optical systems, particularly in industrial environments where accuracy in detecting minute visual details is critical.

Our invention introduces a system that uses multiple light sources, each of which is independently controllable. This allows us to finely tune the illumination conditions in various ways, providing flexibility in how light interacts with the object being measured. By precisely controlling the angles and intensity of each light source, the system creates ideal conditions for capturing detailed images and ensuring accurate measurements, regardless of the object’s material or surface finish.

A key element of this patent is the use of reflective surfaces within the system’s housing. These reflective surfaces are strategically positioned to maximize light uniformity and ensure that the light is evenly distributed across the object’s surface. This is crucial for reducing shadows and hot spots, which can distort image quality and affect the precision of the measurements.

The system also incorporates a camera with a highly sensitive lens that captures detailed images of the object under inspection. These images are then processed using advanced algorithms that can detect even the smallest deviations or imperfections. The patent covers how this data is processed and analyzed to deliver accurate, repeatable measurements.

Additionally, our technology allows for multi-spectral imaging, enabling the system to assess an object across different wavelengths of light. This is particularly useful in applications where material properties, coatings, or surface textures vary and need to be assessed using more than just visible light.

In summary, this patent provides a comprehensive solution for high-precision optical measurement, with applications ranging from quality control in manufacturing to scientific research. The ability to control multiple light sources and process high-fidelity images sets this system apart, ensuring that our clients achieve the highest levels of accuracy and reliability in their visual inspections.
