The fabrication of a multi-spectral lens array and its application in assisting color blindness

Abstract: This article presents a compact multi-spectral lens array and describes its application in assisting color-blindness. The lens array consists of 9 microlens, and each microlens is coated with a different color filter. Thus, it can capture different light bands, including red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, violet, near-infrared, and the entire visible band. First, the fabrication process is described in detail. Second, an imaging system is setup and a color blindness testing card is selected as the sample.… Show more

“…Although the industry has long used color filters or contact lenses to help visually impaired people add brightness to restore some vision in certain situations, they are not adapted to all shades of color. In recent years, researchers have found that accurate spectral separation and acquisition of different frequency band image information can be achieved using multispectral imaging, and the imaging results can reflect the vision of normal people and color-blind people [9] , which can help visually impaired to increase the brightness and color in order to restore part of their vision. Incorporating multispectral lenses into the product design allows visually impaired people to access spectral information for better object recognition.…”

“…MLAs are also widely used in the field of biomedicine. Di et al [8] used photolithography and thermal reflow to fabricate a multi-spectral 9 × 9 lens array that aimed at assisting individuals with color blindness. Each lens was coated with a filter of a different color to simultaneously capture light in a range of wavebands.…”
