    Fast processing spectral discrimination for hyperspectral imagers based on interferometry

    No full text
    Hyperspectral imagers based on interferometry associate with each pixel of the image the spectrum calculated with the Fourier transform of the measured interferogram. This class of hyperspectral imagers is intrinsically faster than imagers based on optical filters and on dispersive means when the noise is dominated by detector noise. This speed advantage could be hampered by the large computing power necessary to extract the spectral content of the image from the large number of data acquired by the camera. We have realized a real-time algorithm to discriminate different spectra of the pixels of a scene directly from the acquired interferograms. The technique showed very good discrimination of pixels illuminated by narrow band radiation. This algorithm is based on principal component analysis and could be implemented directly in the camera processor to discriminate spectra in the image in real time using factorization with singular value decomposition

    Fabry–Perot-based Fourier-transform hyperspectral imaging allows multi-labeled fluorescence analysis

    We demonstrate the ability of our hyperspectral imaging device, based on a scanning Fabry–Perot interferometer, to obtain a single hyper-image of a sample marked with different fluorescent molecules, and to unambiguously discriminate them by observing their spectral fingerprints. An experiment carried out with cyanines, fluorescein, and quantum dots emitting in the yellow–orange region, demonstrates the feasibility of multi-labeled fluorescence microscopy without the use of multiple filter sets or dispersive means
