    摘要: Method of measuring a volume of a liquid (9) provided in at least one receptacle (7), comprising the steps of:
    - providing a receptacle (7) having at least one cavity for holding a liquid;
    - providing a plenoptic camera (11) positioned so as to be able to image the surface of said liquid (9);
    - positioning the receptacle (7) such that the liquid surface faces an objective lens of the plenoptic camera (11);
    - making at least one plenoptic image of the suface of the liquid by means of the plenoptic camera (11);
    - determining a surface topography of said liquid (9) on the basis of said at least one image;
    - calculating the volume of liquid (9) based on the measured surface topography and at least one known dimension and/or position of said cavity (7).

    摘要: The invention concerns an infrared emitter is provided comprising a metalized membrane emitting infrared light in operation. The membrane comprises a two dimensional array of infrared wavelength sized through-holes and to each side a thin metal layer comprising also an array of through-holes. The through-holes are arranged as a two-dimensional periodic array and each of said through-holes have a cross section having a maximum and a minimum dimension of less than any wavelength of the emitted infrared light. The peak wavelength of the emitted infrared light is proportional to the periodicity of the through-holes. At least one of the metal layers is connected to an electrical current source that provides an electrical current that heats at least one of the metal layers so that a narrow bandwidth and highly directive light beam of infrared light is emitted. The membrane is arranged on a membrane support and both are made of a material that resists to temperatures higher than 400 °.
