Abstract:

Aspects of the invention generally relate to illumination gas imaging and detection. Camera systems can illuminate a target scene with light sources configured to emit absorbing and non-absorbing wavelengths with respect to a target gas. An image of the target scene illuminated with a non-absorbing wavelength can be compared to a non-illuminated image of the target scene in order to determine information about the background of the target scene. If sufficient light of the non-absorbing wavelength is scattered by the scene toward a detector, the target scene comprises an adequate background for performing a gas imaging process. A camera system can alert a user of portions of the target scene suitable or unsuitable for performing a gas imaging process. If necessary, the user can reposition the system until sufficient portions of the target scene are recognized as suitable for performing the gas imaging process.

Abstract:

This disclosure provides systems and methods for using an article in connection with an optical device. Some systems may include an article configured to receive the optical device into a main body of the article. The main body may also include an access opening configured to receive a hand of the user to allow the user to operate the optical device while the device is received within the main body. The main body may include an optical aperture to allow the optical device to capture one or more spectrums of light from within the main body. The main body may also include a viewing aperture to allow a user to view a display of the optical device from outside of the main body. Some systems include an alignment apparatus configured to maintain an orientation of the optical device within the main body such that the optical device remains in alignment with both the optical and viewing apertures. Some systems include a viewing visor configured to facilitate the viewing of the display of the optical device from outside of the main body through the viewing aperture.
