Methods are already known for non-contactly measuring the speed of a moving object using spatial filters. A measurement method using such a spatial filter optically observes the irregular irregularities naturally present on the surface of a moving object using radiation, reflection, or transmission, and adds a spatial signal to the irregular signal obtained. It measures the speed of a moving object in the form of frequency.

As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the spatial filter used for such measurements is one in which tens to hundreds of slit-shaped photoelectric conversion elements (for example, solar cells) 2 are arranged at regular intervals in a plane. The spatial filter 1 is arranged so that the juxtaposition of the photoelectric conversion elements 2 coincides with the moving direction of the moving object 3 to be measured, and the image of the moving object 3 is focused on the surface of the spatial filter 1 by the optical system 4. image. In this case, the light source that illuminates the moving object 3 is separately provided in the vicinity thereof. The spatial filter 1 performs a kind of filtering effect on unevenness such as patterns, gloss differences, dirt, scratches, etc. that exist on the surface of a moving object, and the frequency (so-called spatial frequency) distribution of the unevenness has a sharp gradient at a certain spatial frequency. It has excellent selection characteristics. The output of the spatial filter 1 is connected to a frequency measuring device 7 via a low-pass filter 5 for removing high-frequency noise and an amplifier 6 for signal amplification, and its frequency f is measured.

V=1/m・p・f (3) In the actual spatial filter 1, in order to facilitate signal processing, the outputs of the photoelectric conversion elements 2 are added every other time as shown in Fig. 2. A total of two output lines are taken out and connected so that these signals are output differentially. In this case, the substantial distance p between the photoelectric conversion elements 2 in the above equation (3) is the distance between the same polarities. In this way, the slow and high level low frequency component corresponding to the peak near frequency 0 that is generally observed in the power spectral density function is removed, and the relatively low level component superimposed on this low frequency component is removed. Frequency components having speed information can be clearly extracted. Note that even when the object to be measured is stationary and the measuring device such as the spatial filter 1 is moving, it is possible to measure the relative velocity using the above-mentioned principle. It is called.

In this way, conventional measurement devices irradiate a moving object with light from a light source that is isolated from the spatial filter.
Since the light transmitted or reflected by the moving object is incident on the spatial filter via the optical system, the light source and the spatial filter are placed separately, which makes the device complex and large, and makes measurement work difficult. The drawback was that it became complicated. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to integrate a light source and a spatial filter, and eliminate the optical system.
The object of the present invention is to provide a spatial filter detector that is small and easy to measure.

It can also be obtained by embedding a light emitting element such as a light emitting diode between each gap. By arranging the light emitting parts 11 and the light receiving parts 12 alternately in vertical stripes in this way, the light emitted from the light emitting parts 11 is scattered by the moving object surface that moves parallel to the surface of the spatial filter detector 10. By making the scattered light incident on the light receiving section 12, a spatial filter similar to that described above can be formed integrally without using an optical system.
