Method and Device for Detecting Absolute or Relative Temperature and/or Absolute or Relative Wavelength
The invention relates to a method for detecting the absolute temperature or temperature changes and/or the absolute wavelength or wavelength changes of an optical probe signal using an optical detection device including an optical waveguide structure defining an optical input port adapted to receive the optical probe signal and a first and a second optical output port adapted to output a first and a second optical detection signal, respectively. As a response to the optical probe signal, the optical waveguide structure being configured in such a way that a first power transfer function characterizing the transmission of the optical probe signal from the optical input port to the first optical output port differs, with respect to its wavelength and temperature dependency, from a second power transfer function characterizing the transmission of the optical probe signal from the optical input port to the second optical output port. The method includes the steps of transmitting the optical probe signal having a predetermined, but not necessarily constant, wavelength to the optical input port; detecting the first and second optical detection signal at the first and second optical output port by means of a first a and second opto-electrical converter which create a first and second electrical signal corresponding to the optical power of the respective first or second optical detection signal; measuring values of the first and second electrical signal and determining an absolute temperature value or a value of a temperature change of the optical waveguide structure and/or an absolute wavelength value or a value of a wavelength change of the optical probe signal by using the values measured of the first and second electrical signal and a first and a second previously determined wavelength and temperature dependency of both the first and second power transfer function. The invention further relates to an optical detection device for implementing this method.
FIXTURELESS LENSMETER SYSTEM
A lensmeter system may include a mobile device having a camera. The camera may capture a first image of a pattern through a lens that is separate from the camera, while the lens is in contact with a pattern. The mobile device may determine the size of the lens based on the first image and known features of the pattern. The camera may capture a second image of the pattern, while the lens is at an intermediate location between the camera and the pattern. The second image may be transformed to an ideal coordinate system, and processed determine a distortion of the pattern attributable to the lens. The mobile device may measure characteristics of the lens based on the distortion. Characteristics of the lens may include a spherical power, a cylinder power, and/or an astigmatism angle.
