Abstract
A densitometer wherein a sample to be measured is illuminated and the light transmitted through or reflected by the sample is passed through a slit and dispersed by a dispersing element so that a spectral image of the sample as defined by the slit is formed on the image plane of the dispersing element. A plurality of image sensors each comprising a linear array of photodiodes are disposed on the image plane in such a manner that each of the image sensors substantially conform to one of the images of the slit formed by different wavelengths. The outputs from the photodiodes are processed by a computer to provide desired information about the sample.
