Description
Summary:A portable smart spectrometer (PSS-1.0) and related systems have been designed and implemented to provide rapid on-site spectral analysis and lower the operator knowledge threshold for the application of spectrometry. The PSS-1.0 employs spectral analysis models downloaded from the spectral analysis system for offline spectral analysis and displays the results in the field. Users are incentivized to upload spectral analysis data to the Internet for storage by big data technologies, so that the spectral data can be reused easily. By employing blockchain technology it can be ensured that the data has not been tampered with, which can be used in monitoring and data transaction scenarios. The design of this spectrometer and related systems can be used for regulatory uses that require spectroscopy. Experimental results are presented in this paper, which prove that the design of the PSS-1.0 is feasible. The purpose of this paper is to design a civilian and non-operator knowledge threshold spectrometer and provide some ideas for better processing and utilization of spectral data.
