20220333761 · 2022-10-20 · ·

An illumination apparatus includes a main light source, a half minor, and a diffusion plate. The main light source emits main light. The half mirror is spaced apart from the main light source. The half mirror reflects a first light travelling in a first direction among the main light source. The half mirror has a reflective surface reflecting the first light to travel in a second direction. The diffusion plate is disposed between the main light source and the half mirror not overlapping the reflective surface. The diffusion plate has a first horizontal surface and a second horizontal surface. The second horizontal surface is a rear surface of the first horizontal surface. The diffusion plate transmits a second light incident on the first horizontal surface among the main light. The diffusion plate scatters the second light from the second horizontal surface.

Method and apparatus for illuminating an object field imaged by an image sensor

An illuminator apparatus and method for illuminating an object field imaged by a rectangular image sensor having a first aspect ratio is disclosed. The apparatus includes an optical fiber having a proximal end disposed to receive a plurality of input light beams, each light beam having differing spectral properties, the optical fiber being operable to transmit the light beams along the fiber to a distal end of the optical fiber. The apparatus also includes an integrating element disposed to receive the light beams from the distal end of the fiber and combine the light beams to produce a generally homogenous illumination beam at a rectangular output face of the integrating element. The apparatus further includes an illumination projector operable to project an image of the output face of the integrating element into the object field to produce a generally rectangular illuminated region of the object field substantially corresponding to the portion of the object field imaged by the rectangular image sensor.
