AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing portable spectrometer devices struggle to maintain accuracy under changing environmental conditions such as temperature changes or sensor aging, requiring frequent manual calibrations that are inconvenient for users.

Method used

A portable spectrometer device with an integrated processor that determines if a calibration is required based on various factors, such as preset intervals, measurement types, sensor data, and previous measurement results, and triggers the spectrometer module to execute a calibration only when necessary.

Benefits of technology

This approach ensures reliable spectroscopic measurements by minimizing unnecessary calibrations, conserving hardware resources, and allowing for use-case adjusted calibration schemes, thereby speeding up the measurement process without requiring manual user intervention.

Abstract

The invention is in the field of portable spectrometer devices. It relates to a spectrometer comprising a. an interface to an application, wherein the interface is configured to receive a request for performing a spectroscopic measurement and to provide spectroscopic measurement results to the application, b. a spectrometer module which is configured to receive electromagnetic radiation and generate spectroscopic data comprising intensity values, wherein each intensity value is indicative of the intensity of the electromagnetic radiation in at least a part of its spectral range, and c. a processor which is configured to trigger the spectrometer module to execute a spectroscopic measurement in response to a request received through the interface and to receive spectroscopic data from the spectrometer module, wherein the processor is further configured to derive composition data from the spectroscopic data and to provide the spectroscopic data and the composition data to the interface.
