A filter device for an optical module for a lab-on-a-chip analysis device, in which the optical module has a light path, includes a support element, a filter support, and a drive device. The support element can be mounted in the optical module. The filter support is arranged so that it can move on the support element. The filter support also has a first filter region and a second filter region. The drive device is configured such that the filter support can move between a first position in which the first filter region is arranged in the light path, and a second position in which the second filter region is arranged in the light path.

An example system includes a first color bandpass filter to receive part of light from a light source and a second color bandpass filter to receive part of the light from the light source. The first color bandpass filter and the second color bandpass filter each has a cutoff wavelength at a band edge. The first color bandpass filter and the second color bandpass filter each has a band edge within a predefined distance of a nominal wavelength of the light source. The first color bandpass filter and the second color bandpass filter is each configured to output filtered light that is based on received parts of the light. One or more processing devices are configured to perform operations that include determining at least first and second values based on the filtered light.
