Abstract | ||||
Microscopic instruments have been widely used in many applications for the purpose of inspection and measurement. Measurescopes are one of these microscopic instruments, which are used in micro measurements. Old 2-D measurescopes are limited to producing X and Y coordinates for individual points according to the movement of attached IWO micrometers. In has been developed using a this paper, a computerized 2-D measurement system Measurescope, personal computer and developed software. The software, named MScope, is 6.0 and is ready to run on any Windows fully written in lab using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 environment. The system is capable of performing various types of measurements such as linear, angular, circular and radial measurements. In addition, the system is capable of tracing contours and freeform shapes in a manner, which could simulate a 2-D Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). This facility may help in the field of reverse engineering to measure small and complex products. The information of both the traced contours and the freeform shapes are calculated automatically and could be exported to AutoCAD as drawing files for further editing and modifications. | ||||
