Q -What is surface interferometry?

A -The process of measuring surfaces typically at the nanometer level. This non-contact method can be employed to measure the following sample types: opaque, transparent, smooth, and rough. Common products inspected include: Optics, fibers, film, paper, and precision machined surfaces.

Q -What is computered tomography?

A -The process of using digital processing to generate a three-dimensional image of the internal and external portions of an object from a large series of two-dimensional x-ray images taken around a single axis of rotation. The x-ray slice data is generated using an X-ray source that rotates around the object; X-ray sensors are positioned on the opposite side of the circle from the X-ray source. Many data scans are progressively taken as the object is gradually passed through the gantry.

The word "tomography" is derived from the Greek tomos (slice) and graphia (describing).


Q –What is 3D photography?

A -A 3D photograph containing an object's color, texture, and 3D shape. This information can be used for taking measurements, comparing
to other 3D photographs, and creating 3D models. This technology can be used in virtually any industry.
