A medical imaging device includes: a spectroscopic unit that separates light into a first light component of a wavelength band and a second light component; a first imaging element that includes a plurality of first pixels configured to receive the first light component and convert the first light component into electric signals; and a second imaging element that includes a plurality of second pixels and includes a first color filter on which first filters configured to transmit the light component of the wavelength band of one color in the light components of the wavelength bands of two colors that are contained in the second light component and second filters configured to transmit light components of a plurality of wavelength bands including at least the wavelength band of another color in the light components of the wavelength bands of the two colors are arranged.

Vehicle lamp

A vehicle lamp includes: a first light source configured to irradiate visible light; a second light source configured to emit infrared light; a rotating reflector configured to be rotated while reflecting the visible light and the infrared light, and scan the visible light and the infrared light along a horizontal direction on a virtual vertical screen; a light receiving unit configured to receive the infrared light emitted from the second light source and reflected by a target object; and a controller configured to control an irradiation area of the visible light based on the infrared light received by the receiving unit. When determined that there is an abnormality in at least one of the second light source or the light receiving unit, the controller is configured to control the irradiation area based on the surrounding information of the vehicle obtained from outside the vehicle lamp.

Referenced and stabilized optical measurement system

A referenced and stabilized optical measurement system includes a light source, a plurality of optical elements and optical fiber assemblies and a detector arranged to compensate for the effects of system variation which may affect measurement performance. A non-continuous light source provides a common source light on a common source path. A reference light and a measurement light are derived from the common source light and propagated across separate paths of optically matching optical components in order to produce a common signal variation on both the reference light signal and the measurement light signal. Light paths exposed to air are contained indiscrete volumes for purging gasses from the volumes. Ratios of the reference signal and measurement signal are acquired under various conditions for compensating the measurement signal for system variations.

Optical element surface alteration to correct wavefront error

Methods and mechanisms for correcting a wavefront error in an optical element are disclosed. A wavefront error that is downstream of an optical element in an optical path is determined. A refractive index prescription that reduces the wavefront error is determined. A beam of energy is directed at a surface of the optical element in accordance with the refractive index prescription to alter the surface to change an index of refraction at multiple locations on the surface.
