Abstract
An optical inspection system for determining various features of, for example, painted surfaces, by analyzing light reflected from the surface in a plurality of ways. In one case the cross sectional diameter of a beam of radiation, which gives information regarding the surface, is measured by passing the beam through a filter means (104) having transmissive and absorptive portions (107,108), the arcuate width at each radial distance from the optical axis (100) being such that there is a predetermined relationship between the diameter of the beam and the amount of radiation passed by the filter.
