Photometric device
A photometric device ( 1 ) measuring light emitted from a measuring object such as a display ( 2 ) includes two types of filters including interference filters ( 20 X, 20 Y, and 20 Z) and an LVF ( 21 ), a disk ( 22 ) supporting the interference filters and the LVF, a motor ( 23 ) rotatably drive the disk to cause the light emitted from the measuring object to scan the interference filters and the LVF sequentially, a photoreceptor ( 13 ) converting light passed through the interference filters and light passed through the LVF to an electrical signal, a photometric controller ( 14 ) outputting photometric information based on the electrical signal of the light passed through the interference filters and converted by the photoreceptor and the electrical signal of the light passed through the LVF and converted by the photoreceptor.
1. A photometric device measuring light emitted from a measuring object, the photometric device comprising:
two or more types of filters;
a supporter supporting the filters;
an actuator variably driving the supporter at a speed depending on the types of the filters to cause the light emitted from the measuring object to scan the filters sequentially under a condition depending on the types of the filters;
a photoreceptor converting light passed through the filters to an electrical signal; and
a photometric controller outputting photometric information based on the electrical signal of the light passed through the filters and converted by the photoreceptor.
2. The photometric device of claim 1 , wherein the supporter is a plate member provided with at least one interference filter, which is one of the two or more types of filters, and at least one spectral portion, which is another one of the two or more types of filters on a plane of the plate member, and
the actuator is a motor moving the plate member along a direction in which the interference filter and the spectral portion are provided, and variably driving the plate member so that the spectral portion takes a longer time for scanning than the interference filters.
3. The photometric device of claim 2 , wherein the spectral portion includes a linear variable filter having transmitting portions of light each corresponding to a different transmissive wavelength.
4. The photometric device of claim 2 , wherein the interference filters include three interference filters, having a Red range, a Green range, and a Blue range, respectively, and selectively transmitting a particular wavelength corresponding to a respective one of tristimulus values.
5. The photometric device of claim 2 , wherein the interference filter and the spectral portion each include a pair of filter elements paired along a light path, and the pair of filter elements are tilted and faced with each other so that one side of one of the pair of filter elements is close to one side of the other one of the pair of filter elements, and the other side of one of the pair of filter elements is away from the other side of the other one of the pair of filter elements.
