  • Publication number: 20200096491
    Abstract: A method for preparing original data of an odor image includes a measurement result acquiring step of acquiring each measurement result measured with respect to the odor substance included in the sample in each of a plurality of sensor elements of an odor sensor, and a data processing step of generating the original data for representing the odor of the sample in the image by processing each of the acquired measurement results. Each of the sensor elements has different detection properties with respect to the odor substance. In a case where each of the original data items is represented in a small image, the odor of the sample is represented in an odor image in a predetermined display mode in which small images are assembled, and each of the small images is varied in accordance with the magnitude of the value of each original data item.

  • Patent number: 10379042
    Abstract: Provided is a Fourier transform-type spectroscopic device capable of improving an acquisition speed of a molecular vibration spectrum. The Fourier transform-type spectroscopic device (1) of the present invention rotates a scanning mirror (26b) by rotation of a rotating shaft (26a) to change a light path length of scanning light and delay or advance the scanning light with respect to reference light in accordance with a rotation angle of the scanning mirror (26b) from an initial position, and is thus capable of moving the scanning mirror (26b) at a high speed as compared with a case where a movable mirror is mechanically moved as in a conventional Fourier transform-type spectroscopic device, thereby improving an acquisition speed of a molecular vibration spectrum.
