  • Non-contact measurement of multi-temperature profile of an object
    Patent number: 10378962
    Abstract: A method involves determining multiple temperatures of an object from spectral data collected from the object. The spectral data covers a plurality of wavelengths. The method comprises using a computer to (a) assign an initial value for residual radiation; (b) identify a black body profile that best fits the spectral data over the plurality of wavelengths; (c) remove radiation corresponding to the identified profile from the residual radiation; and (d) return to (b) until the residual radiation reaches a termination criterion.
    Type: Grant
