In the past decade, underwater spectral imaging (USI) has shown great potential in underwater exploration for its high spectral and spatial resolution. This proposal presents a stare-type USI system combined with the liquid crystal tunable filter (LCTF) spectral splitting device. Considering the working features of LCTF and the theoretical model of USI, the core structure containing “imaging lens-LCTF-imaging sensor” is designed and developed. The system is compact, and the optical geometry is constructed minimally. The spectral calibration test analysis proved that the spectral response range of the system covers a full band of 400 nm to 700 nm with the highest spectral resolution between 6.7 nm and 18.5 nm. The experiments show that the system can quickly collect high-quality spectral image data by switching between different spectral bands arbitrarily. The designed prototype provides a feasible and reliable spectral imaging solution for in situ underwater targets observation with high spectrum collecting efficiency.

In this paper, we propose a fast interference spectral imaging system based on liquid crystal (LC) relaxation. The path delay of nematic LC during falling relaxation is used for the scanning of the optical path. Hyperspectral data can be obtained by Fourier transforming the data according to the path delay. The system can obtain two-dimensional spatial images of arbitrary wavelengths in the range of 300–1100 nm with a spectral resolution of 262 cm−1. Compared with conventional Fourier transform spectroscopy, the system can easily collect and integrate all valid information within 20 s. Based on the LC, controlling the optical path difference between two orthogonally polarized beams can avoid mechanical movement. Finally, the potential for application in contactless and rapid non-destructive optical component defect inspection is demonstrated.

Dermatosis, a kind of common and frequent disease, is harmful to health and risk against the lives of human beings. The detection of dermatosis is of great significance, especially to the early diagnosis of skin disease. Nowadays, the studies of spectral imaging technology in the diagnosis of skin disease are attracting more and more attentions. In this paper, we firstly review some literary products related to dermatosis detection and then make a comparison among fluorescence spectrum method, filter wheel method, liquid crystal tunable filter (LCTF) method and mosaic multispectral imaging technology. Finally we propose that the smaller, lighter and more cost-effective equipment should be the trend.
