- Abstract
In this study, the development and test stages of an open-source user interface are presented. The developed user interface is compatible with most of the low-cost camera-based spectrometer designs in the literature. The spectrum image of the light source acquired with the camera is cropped and analyzed in a real-time thread after interactive calibration, which is a special feature of the user interface. Camera controls (e.g., brightness, contrast, saturation, and exposure) are available through the user interface. For user interface testing, a common spectrometer design, which has a light-guide tube with a narrow entrance slit in one end and an image sensor on the other, is constructed. Various compact fluorescent lamps and light-emitting diodes are used as light sources and the results are presented here. Advanced cross-platform user interface can be used with inexpensive spectrometer designs, especially involving a web camera.
