    摘要: An LED spectrophtometer device for determining an aspect of the color of an object may include: a visible spectrophotometer comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes that emit light in the visible spectrum onto the object; at least one detector for detecting said light after being directed onto the object and for generating an output; and a UV light emitting diode assembly that emits light in the near ultraviolet spectrum and communicates with at least one detector for generating an output. The device may further include a processor that combines the outputs of the at least one detector of the visible spectrophotometer and the at least one detector in communication with the UV light emitting diode assembly.

    摘要: A sheet curl measurement system and method and an automatic sheet decurling system controlled thereby for the printed paper sheets output of printer. The sheet curl may be remotely sensed without contacting or interfering with the motion of the sheets in their normal sheet path, using a simple but accurate optical sheet curl sensor operating on a portion of the moving sheet at an angle thereto and perpendicularly thereto, with displacement insensitive optics, in both an angular direction substantially parallel to the sheet movement direction and an angular direction substantially transverse to the sheet movement direction, with ratioing of the two output signals.

    摘要: A developability sensing system with an optical sensor for measuring the density of imaging material samples on an imaging surface of a printer, with an illumination source and photosensor system for measuring the amount of reflected illumination from the imaging materials. A first lens system and its first photosensor may receive both specularly and diffusely reflected illumination from certain imaging materials. A separate lenslet system is positioned outside of the first lens system. It may comprise one to four spaced apart generally cylindrical lenslets with a central axis generally perpendicular to the imaging material sample and an end surface facing the imaging material sample defined by a segment of a hyperbolic curved surface to form a rotationally symmetrical lens with a hyperbolic cross-section. There are separate photosensors for these lenslets, which are positioned and optically adapted to only receive diffusely reflected light from the imaging material sample, even though reflected illumination from the imaging material sample has both specularly and diffusely reflected illumination from partially specularly reflective imaging materials.
