Abstract
An optical spectrometer uses broadband radiation detectors to measure thermal radiation generated by the varied heating of an object without complex mechanical mechanisms, narrowband filters, or the like. The received thermal radiation is used to deduce spectral qualities of either the thermal radiation emitter or a second object reflecting or transmitting this thermal radiation.
