    Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting properties of reflective transparent surface coatings on a sheet of transparent material, such as a sheet of glass or a sheet of plastic material. One or more light beams are directed at an angle to the surfaces of the material under test and the energy in surface reflections is sensed. The presence and surface location of a surface coating is determined from the relative magnitudes of surface reflections of the light beam. The type of coating is determined from the magnitudes of reflections from the surface coating of one or more different wavelength light beams. The surface coating may be, for example, a Low-E coating, or a metal or metal oxide coating left on a sheet of float glass.

    Abstract: A detection system for measuring glass that has been placed under strain and the resulting stress lines in the glass has a light source of individual elements configured to create a light distribution. The light distribution has a discontinuity which enhances the viewing of a photoelastic effect in the glass. The light source creates a viewable optical interference (i.e., color changes) which results from stress lines in the glass.

    Abstract: An apparatus for detecting a fluorescing substance on a test material includes a light source configured to direct light energy toward the test material, and one or more display features configured to display fluorescing light from the test material. When light from the light source contacts the fluorescing material, display features allows the fluorescing material to project a fluorescing glow into an ambient environment near the apparatus.

    Abstract: A laser gauge for measuring the thickness of glass panes and the spacing between glass panes in a sealed insulated window. A laser beam is directed at a predetermined angle to a first glass surface. Reflections from the glass surfaces pass through a gauge housing, through a slot in an adjustable slide, and impinge on a matted finished surface of thin scale. The housing and the slide are formed from materials having a predetermined coefficient of friction relative to each other to provide smooth movement to said slide in said housing. The scale is sufficiently thin to avoid false readings from internal reflections within the scale. The scale is adjustable on the slide to align the first reflection with a reference indicia. For each glass pane and for each pane spacing, the slide is adjusted so that a first surface reflection aligns with the reference indicia and a second surface reflection is compared with indicia on the scale to determine the thickness of the glass pane or the glass pane spacing. A separate set of indicia may be provided on the scale for measuring the spacing between glass panes.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for protecting an optical transmission measurement when sensing transparent materials. Sensing apparatus located in a housing directs a light beam at an upward angle to a sheet of transparent material and detects downward surface reflections of the beam from the transparent material. The light beam and the reflections pass through a transparent protective layer on the housing. A flow of clean air is passed between the protective layer and the transparent material to remove particles and liquid from the protective layer and from the space between the protective layer and the transparent material. Preferably, the protective layer is either made from a hydrophobic material or has a hydrophobic surface coating to facilitate blowing liquid and particles from the surface.
