  • System for detecting offset printing using same
    Patent number: 8240805
    Abstract: The invention concerns a detection system (7) for measuring at least one characteristic of an inked zone (5) comprising at least one sensor adapted to sense a light radiation reflected by said inked zone (5) and to generate a measurement signal representing at least the characteristic of the inked zone (5). Such a system further comprises at least one first optic fiber (10), adapted to convey up to the neighborhood of the inked zone (5), a light radiation emitted by a light source (11).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 27, 2006
    Date of Patent: August 14, 2012
    Assignees: Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Universite Bordeaux 1
    Inventors: Laurent Sarger, Lionel Canioni, Stéphane Santran, Edouard Girault
  • Coherence spectrometry devices
    Patent number: 7701583
    Abstract: A spectrometry device comprising at least one wavefront-dividing interferometer comprising at least two unbalanced arms and at least one air wedge, a device for imaging interference fringes, an imaging sensor of the fringes and a processor that processes a signal derived from the sensor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 30, 2005
    Date of Patent: April 20, 2010
    Assignee: Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique—CNRS
    Inventors: Lionel Canioni, Stéphane Santran, Bruno Bousquet
  • Detecting laser-induced fluorescence emissions
    Patent number: 7609379
    Abstract: A system for detecting a chemical element within a material including at least one laser emission means for ionizing part of the material to generate fluorescence; at least one transmitting Bragg grating that filters the wavelength corresponding to the deexcitation wavelength of the element; and at least one photodiode that detects a line corresponding to the filtering wavelength, wherein the at least one Bragg grating is mobile to vary the filtering wavelength.
