Multispectral Image Acquisition

The purpose of this project was to develop control software for a multi-spectral imaging system. The multi-spectral imaging system used by the colour Lab consists of a camera (Alta USB camera) and a filter (VariSpec liquid crystal tuneable filter). The camera and the filter were delivered by two different manufacturers and therefore have two separate stand-alone control programs. The fact that the hardware had to be controlled by two separate pieces of software meant that the image capturing procedure was very time-consuming and needed an unrealistic amount of user input. The project resulted in a C++ console program with all the required and necessary functionsas those provided by the individual software, camera and filter; and operated both the camera and the filter simultaneously and conveniently. The project was performed at the Norwegian colour Laboratory in Gjøvik University College.
