The invention relates to a miniature
spectral imaging system and imaging method, and relates to the technical field of photoelectric imaging, solving the problems that in the current high
spectral imaging technology of
CMOS, the spatial resolution of the target is reduced when the
signal to
noise ratio is improved. The miniature
spectral imaging system includes a lens, a
beam splitting element andimaging
system electronics, wherein the incident light is projected to the
beam splitting element through focusing of the lens, and after the incident light passes by the
beam splitting element, theincident light is divided into n narrow
spectral bands; and the imaging system
electronics can receive the light from the n
spectral bands and convert the light into electric signals. The imaging method includes two processes: quick calibration of spectrum position and high spectral imaging. The calibration process is used for quickly calibrating the projection positions of the n wave length spectrums on the focal plane of the sensor after assembling of the imaging system is completed, and then the imaging system performs high spectral imaging according to the
calibration result after calibration is over. The miniature spectral imaging system and imaging method use the
CMOS image sensor with a function of opening multiple windows in the row direction, thus being low in
power consumption, being low in cost and being high in the
system integration level so as to satisfy the demand for light and
miniaturization development of high spectral imaging.
