    摘要: The invention provides a hair treatment device (40) comprising a light-based detector (10) for detecting a hair (22) near a skin surface (21) and a method for detecting a hair (22) near a skin surface (21). The detector (10) comprises a light source (11), optical elements (14, 16, 17, 18) and a polarization-sensitive light sensor (12, 13). The light source (11) generates a light beam (31) and the optical elements (14, 16, 17, 18) focus the light beam (31) at a hair (22) near the skin surface (21). The polarization-sensitive light sensor (12, 13) is provided for detecting light interacted with the hair (22) or the skin surface (21) and having a predefined linear polarization. The light source (11) and/or the optical elements (14, 16, 17, 8) are arranged to cause the light beam (31), when reaching the skin surface (21), to have a polarization direction which is time-invariant and spatially variant in cross-sections of the 10 light beam.

    摘要: A hair treatment device is provided comprising a light-based detector (10) for detecting a hair (11) near a skin (12) surface. The light-based detector comprises a light source (13) for emitting optical radiation of at least a first wavelength and with an incident polarization towards the skin surface. A light sensor (14a, 14b) is provided for detecting light reflected at the skin surface. The light sensor (14a, 14b) is capable of separately detecting he reflected light with the incident polarization and with a different polarization and for providing a PP value representing the detected light with the incident polarization and a CP value representing the detected light with the different polarization. A processor (15) is operative to scale the CP value and the PP value to respective dynamic ranges, to determine a Minimum Intensity Projection (MIP) value by selecting the lowest value of the scaled CP value and the scaled PP value and to discriminate between the skin surface (12) and the hair (11) based on the minimum intensity projection.
