A light intensity monitoring system, a light intensity monitor and a method for monitoring light intensity the light intensity monitor attached to a vehicle roof. The light intensity monitor includes light sensors which measure light intensity at a top wall and two sidewalls and records the location of the vehicle at precise time intervals using a global positioning sensor. A microcontroller within the monitor compiles the measured data into communications packets, which include light intensity measurements and the corresponding vehicle location for each measurement period. These packets are then wirelessly transmitted to a remote computing device using either a wireless network communications unit or a dual-mode near-field communications unit. The remote device receives the data and utilizes a mapping application to display the various light intensity levels, expressed in lux, with the location of the measurement. The remote device generates a time series compliance and an environmental light pollution report.

A method includes sensing data indicative of a plurality of wavelengths of light utilizing one or more sensors forming a part of a sensor ring, storing the data on a memory device forming a part of the sensor ring, transmitting the data to a computing device external to the ring and receiving a photic environmental model from the computing device the photic environmental model based, at least in part, on the data.

A size of a light curtain is reduced while function expansibility is maintained. A multiple-optical-axis photoelectric sensor includes a light curtain that forms a plurality of optical axes along a longitudinal direction, and a function expansion unit that is attachable to or detachable from a first end of the light curtain and expands a function of the light curtain. The function expansion unit has a protrusion that extends along the longitudinal direction and is attached to the first end of the light curtain so as to protrude from an outer peripheral surface of the light curtain.

Provided is a light source correction method for low-light detection, which relates to the technical field of remote detection. The light source correction method includes following steps: S1: determining whether brightness of a light source exceeds a predetermined value, and if the brightness of the light source exceeds the predetermined value, performing step S2; or if the brightness of the light source does not exceed the predetermined value, performing no operation; S2: driving a shielding plate located in front of a luminous flux detection board to rotate around a rotating shaft to obtain a luminous flux intensity on the luminous flux detection board; and S3: drawing a curve graph showing that the luminous flux intensity varies with a rotation position of the shielding plate, and calculating position information of the light source.

An instrument measurement package is provided for assessing response effect from laser illumination onto a target. The package includes a photodiode, a circuit board, an illumination indicator, an enclosure and a battery. The photodiode measures the laser illumination as an incidence signal. The circuit board accommodates a power relay, a microprocessor, a clock and a flash memory card for recording the incidence signal. The illumination indicator displays a result from the incidence signal by activation. The enclosure contains the circuit board and mounts the photodiode. The battery supplies direct current voltage to the circuit board via the power relay.

An optical proximity sensor includes a housing, an optical emitter, and an optical detector. A first light guide disposed in a first chimney of the housing is configured to direct light from the optical emitter through the first chimney towards a target location. A second light guide disposed in a second chimney of the housing is configured to direct a returned portion of the light emitted from the optical emitter through the second chimney towards the optical detector.

A gauge that is configured to detect a time at which radiation enters the gauge. The gauge may include a member that is configured to transition from a first state to a second state upon receipt of the incoming radiation, and may include a light probe that is configured to detect when the member transitions to the second state. The gauge may provide for determining a time of arrival of the radiation at another gauge. For example, the gauge may correlate the time of arrival at the gauge with the another gauge, thereby providing for correlating a response time of a test specimen with actual exposure time of the test specimen to radiation (e.g., an ion beam).
