Abstract
Provided is a spectral imaging apparatus. The spectral imaging apparatus includes: an optical filter including a plurality of band filter units having different center wavelengths; a sensing device configured to receive light passing through the optical filter; an imaging lens array including a plurality of lens units which respectively correspond to the plurality of band filter units and each implement imaging on the sensing device; and a transparent substrate which is apart from the sensing device. At least one of the optical filter and the imaging lens array is provided on the transparent substrate.
Claims14
An image sensing device comprising:
- an optical filter comprising a plurality of band filter units, the plurality of band filter units having different center wavelengths;
- a sensor configured to receive light passing through the optical filter, and convert the light into an electrical signal to perform imaging of an object;
- an imaging lens array which is apart from the optical filter, comprising a plurality of lens units which respectively correspond to the plurality of band filter units, the plurality of lens units forming a focus of the imaging of the sensor;
- and
- a light blocking layer provided between the plurality of lens units,
- wherein the light blocking layer is provided at positions corresponding to boundaries between the plurality of band filter units.
