Method for controlling illumination of medical object, involves detecting shutter signals determined from controller, and controlling illumination of object based on function of signals, where signals indicate durations of exposure interval

摘要

The method involves detecting an endoscope (20) or exoscope and a light sensitive image sensor (31). Durations of exposure interval within photons falling on the image sensor are determined by a camera controller (40). A picture signal is produced by the image sensor. Shutter signals determined from the camera controller are detected, where the shutter signals indicate the durations of the exposure interval. Illumination of a medical object (12) is controlled based on function of the shutter signals by controlling multiple inorganic or organic LEDs (56) or semiconductor sources of light. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a lighting controller for controlling illumination of an object comprising an exposure signal input for receiving an exposure signal (2) a camera controller for a light sensitive image sensor for controlling duration of exposure interval (3) a computer program comprising a set of instructions for executing a method for controlling illumination of an object (4) a configuration pattern for configurable arrangement of logic gates.
