Abstract: A medical imaging device configured to spatially resolve recording of multispectral video data of an examination area of a patient including a light source having multiple optical emitters with different wavelengths in the visible and NIR spectral range. The light source has an emitter whose wavelength lies in the range of ±50% of its half-width around the intersection of the blue and green filter curves or the green and red filter curves, and the exposure control and the data processing means are arranged to separately detect the affected two of the red and green or the green and blue colour signals in an exposure pattern with activation of the emitter at the intersection point and to evaluate them in the multispectral analysis with mutually different wavelengths shifted by the two affected filter curves as two supporting point wavelengths.

Abstract: A method for monitoring vital parameters of a living being, wherein broad-band light is beamed into the tissue of a living being, a spectrum of the beamed-in light is recorded, and absorption is evaluated. At least one first parameter is determined on the basis of the absorption values of a first spectral range, and at least one second parameter is determined on the basis of the absorption values of a second spectral range. The first parameter is compared to the second parameter, and at least one vital parameter is determined with the aid of this comparison.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for the detection and identification of objects, wherein an illumination device emits polychromatic light in the infrared range, creating a light curtain, or an essentially two-dimensional area of light in the X and Z axis. The light from the light curtain and light reflected or transmitted by an object in the light curtain is imaged, via aperture-imaging optics, onto an aperture that is in the optical path and behind the aperture-imaging optics. The aperture is an elongated opening extending along the Z axis. A wavelength-dispersive device, such as a grating, diffracts light admitted by the aperture wavelength-dispersively in a diffraction direction along the Y axis. An image sensor detects the diffraction image and generates image signals which are analyzed to identify the materials comprising the object. An output signal may be generated in response to the material identified.

Abstract: A process for the optical detection of objects moved at a conveying speed. The process comprises illuminating the object in a temporally consecutive manner with a sequence of at least two light pulses of different colors and taking images of the object during each light pulse with a monochromatic optical area sensor comprising many sensor lines. The process comprises reading out and temporarily storing at least as many lines of each image as there are different colors of the light pulses. The read-out lines have a line pitch relative to each other. Sequentially combining lines from images taken under illumination by different colors to form color lines, with the lines combined with each other having the aforesaid line pitch or a multiple thereof relative to each other when they are being read out, and assembling the color lines into an overall color picture.
