The outcome of Phase II development will be a Polarization Hyperspectral Imaging Projector. Beyond the calibration of remote sensing instruments, applications include; Digital Tissue Phantoms (Simulations of medical imagery), Factory Calibration of CMOS Sensors, Quality Control of Photographic Film Materials, Machine Vision Simulation, Polarization-Spatial-Spectral Illumination Sources.
The proposed PHIP instrument would be of benefit in calibrating imaging sensors in a number of NASA programs, including: Aerosol Polarimetry Sensor Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Instrument Incubator Program Sensors including the proposed Ocean Color Radiometer (ORCA).
