Abstract: A method is provided for operating an imaging system to maintain a tunable acoustic gradient (TAG) lens at a desired operating state. In a first step, the TAG lens operates using a standard imaging drive control configuration (e.g., a standard drive voltage and duration) during a plurality of imaging drive mode time periods, to achieve a standard imaging state of the TAG lens. In a second step, the TAG lens operates using a regulating adaptive drive control configuration during a plurality of regulating adaptive drive mode time periods, wherein at least one of a different respective TAG lens drive voltage and a different respective TAG lens drive duration is used for different respective regulating adaptive drive mode time periods, based on a monitoring signal that is indicative of a difference between the standard imaging state and a current operating state of the TAG lens.

Abstract: A threaded shaft measuring device includes a table that supports a threaded shaft to be measured, and that is capable of adjusting a rotation position about a perpendicular Z axis, adjusting a rotation position about an X axis that is horizontal and intersects with the Z axis, and adjusting a position in a Y axis direction that is horizontal and intersects with the X axis; and a stylus that performs scanning measurement of a surface of the threaded shaft. An adjustment jig capable of making contact with the threaded shaft and an elevator that brings the adjustment jig into contact with the threaded shaft are installed on the table. The adjustment jig includes an abutting bottom surface; an abutting side surface; a measurement surface; and an axis line marker that enables a tilt relative to the X axis to be detected.

Abstract: A probe head of a three-dimensional coordinate measuring device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a measurer, a first and second diaphragm, a first oscillator, and a second oscillator. The measurer extends in a first direction. The first and second diaphragms are provided at two different positions on the measurer, at a first position and a second position, respectively, and support the measurer such that the measurer is capable of displacement in a first direction. The first oscillator causes the measurer to oscillate along the first direction. The second oscillator causes a predetermined portion of the measurer between the first and second diaphragms to oscillate along each of a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and a third direction orthogonal to both the first and second directions.

Abstract: A coordinate measuring unit includes a measuring probe and a processing device configured to compute the shape coordinates of an object to be measured on the basis of an output of the measuring probe. The measuring probe has a first identification code. The processing device includes a first determination portion configured to determine whether the first identification code outputted from the measuring probe is matched with a matching code, and a downstream determination portion configured to identify a second identification code outputted from the measuring probe to thereby recognize the measuring probe when the first identification code is matched with the matching code in the first determination portion and the measuring probe further has the second identification code. The coordinate measuring unit with the aforementioned configuration can efficiently recognize a number of measuring probes.

Abstract: A measuring probe for measuring a screw groove of a relatively movable ball screw includes a light source, an objective lens formed to correspond to the screw groove of the ball screw, arranged to be opposed to the screw groove of the ball screw in a non-contact manner, and configured to emit light from the light source to the screw groove of the ball screw, and a line sensor configured to detect an interference pattern generated by reflected light from the screw groove of the ball screw and reflected light on a surface of the objective lens. This enables high-accuracy measurement of a specified area of a shape of a side surface of a relatively movable work in a non-contact manner.

Abstract: Method and system for calculating a height map of a surface of an object from an image stack in scanning optical 2.5D profiling of the surface by an optical system, a focal plane is scanned at different height positions with respect to the object surface. An image is captured at each height position of the focal plane to form the image stack. The scanning of the focal plane comprises long range sensing and short range sensing a displacement of the focal plane for sensing low and high spatial frequency components. The height position of the focal plane is estimated by combining the low and high spatial frequency components. A height position of each image in the image stack is calculated, based on the estimated height position of each respective focal plane. The images of the image stack are interpolated to equidistant height positions for obtaining a corrected image stack.
