Principle of Operation
The object is viewed through an adapted stereo microscope, where a small light spot appears in the field of view. The object is moved using the motorised stage until the point to be measured coincides with the spot. The depth co-ordinate is set by the observer using stereoscopic vision to locate the spot "on" the surface of the object. The X,Y and Z co-ordinates are monitored continuously via linear encoders and can be stored on command in the computer. The object stage, driven by motors, can be guided manually, using a high resolution joystick, or automatically under software command, allowing movements to be constrained if required to predetermined planes or directions, or to pre-set patterns.
The microscope can be supplied with a trinocular head to allow video or photographic imaging.
