Snapshot multispectral imaging is a rising non-invasive and contact-free analysis method and technology to discriminate or identify objects based on their spectral characteristics. We demonstrate a versatile system approach for compact and real-time capable snapshot cameras for the visible (VIS) and the near-infrared (NIR) or the short-wave infrared (SWIR) wavelength range based on a micro-optical multi-aperture system and various spectral filter approaches. In addition, the manufacturing, the calibration, and the limitations of the demonstration systems are described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
