Abstract

En 中文
This study developed a method to simulate the sensor responses and verify the effectiveness on spectral reconstruction by a spectrum tunable LED system. Studies have shown that the spectral reconstruction accuracy could be improved by including multiple channels in a digital camera. However, the real sensors with designed spectral sensitivities were hard to manufacture and validate. Therefore, the presence of a quick and reliable validation mechanism was preferred when performing evaluation. In this study, two novel approaches, i.e., channel-first and illumination-first simulations, were proposed to replicate the designed sensors with the use of a monochrome camera and a spectrum-tunable LED illumination system. In the channel-first method, the spectral sensitivities of three extra sensor channels were optimized theoretically for an RGB camera and then simulated by matching the corresponding illuminants in the LED system. The illumination-first method optimized the spectral power distribution (SPD) of the lights using the LED system, and the extra channels could be determined accordingly. The results of practical experiments showed that the proposed methods were effective to simulate the responses of the extra sensor channels.
