OPTICAL FILTER, AND IMAGE SENSOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING OPTICAL FILTER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18077777 titled 'OPTICAL FILTER, AND IMAGE SENSOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING OPTICAL FILTER
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an optical filter that consists of an active filter region and a reference filter region. The active filter region can be a spectral filter or a polarizing filter. The reference filter region is designed to measure the amount of light passing through the active filter region and includes a gray filter, as well as either a black filter or a transparent filter. The transmittance of the gray filter is higher than the black filter and lower than the transparent filter.
- The optical filter has an active filter region and a reference filter region.
- The active filter region can be a spectral filter or a polarizing filter.
- The reference filter region includes a gray filter, as well as either a black filter or a transparent filter.
- The gray filter has a transmittance that is higher than the black filter and lower than the transparent filter.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Optical signal processing
- Imaging systems
- Display devices
- Optical communications
Problems solved by this technology:
- Accurate measurement of light passing through an active filter region
- Improved control and adjustment of optical signals
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced performance and accuracy in optical filtering
- Increased flexibility in adjusting and controlling light transmission
Original Abstract Submitted
An optical filter includes an active filter region including at least one of a spectral filter and a polarizing filter; and a reference filter region configured to sense an amount of light passing through the active filter region, wherein the reference filter region includes a gray filter and at least one of a black filter and a transparent filter, wherein the gray filter has a transmittance that is higher than a transmittance of the black filter and lower than a transmittance of the transparent filter.
