William Baedke has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • INSTRUMENT USING NEAR-FIELD INTENSITY CORRELATION MEASUREMENTS FOR CHARACTERIZING SCATTERING OF LIGHT BY SUSPENSIONS
    Publication number: 20080018893
    Abstract: Imaging systems may include a light source that directs light towards a scattering medium. A digital imaging system receives transmitted light that is transmitted through the scattering medium substantially without being scattered, and also receives multiple components of scattered light that are passed through the scattering medium after being scattered. The digital imaging system then outputs image intensity information related to the transmitted light and the scattered light. An imaging controller determines a property of the scattering medium, based on spatial correlations related to the image intensity information.
