Title A Simple Infrared-Augmented Digital Photography Technique
Creator Shazly, Tarek A; Bonhomme, Gabrielle R
Subject Infrared Photography; Pupil Size; Pupil Reactivity; Digital Camera; Infrared Light
Description Infrared photography is a useful tool for detection and documentation of pupillary size and reactivity. Infrared photographs and videos provide documentation and contribute to medical education of students and house-staff. However the dedicated equipment may not be widely available. Infrared cameras are sensitive only to infrared light by blocking visible light. Charge-coupled device (CCD) camera sensors are inherently sensitive to both visible and infrared light. Commercially available point and shoot cameras are typically equipped with infrared attenuating filters. These filters dont completely block near infrared light in the 800nm-900nm range. Utilizing a regular digital camera for documentation of pupillary abnormalities becomes challenging under dim light conditions and in patients with dark colored irides. This problem can be solved by utilizing infrared illumination.
