    摘要: Apparatus, systems, and methods for the inspection of holes in transparent materials, the apparatus including a processor, an illumination probe, and a detection probe. The illumination probe includes a laser light source and a reflective surface and is configured to be inserted into a first hole in the transparent material. The detection probe includes a second reflective surface and a photodetector and is configured to be inserted in a second hole in the transparent material. Laser light is directed onto the first reflective surface within the first hole and is reflected through a wall of the first hole, into the transparent material, and reflected by the second reflective surface to the photodetector. The photodetector transmits a measured light intensity value to the processor, which compares the light intensity value to a standard intensity value to determine whether or not a crazing condition exists in the second hole.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present application provide a measuring apparatus and method of a wafer geometry. The measuring apparatus of the wafer geometry includes: an air-bearing chuck, configured to generate an air cushion to keep a wafer to be measured floating up on a top surface of the air-bearing chuck; and an interferometer, disposed on one side, away from the air-bearing chuck, of the wafer, and configured to obtain an interference fringe image of a front surface of the wafer to measure a geometry of the wafer based on the interference fringe image. An air cushion is generated by utilizing an air-bearing chuck to keep a wafer to be measured floating up on a top surface of the air-bearing chuck, thereby avoiding damage of the original shape of the wafer or contamination of the wafer by a clamping tool, and further reducing errors during measurement.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus includes a dividing unit, a measuring unit, a comparing unit, and a determining unit. The dividing unit spatially divides a time-series image of a structure surface captured during passage of a traffic load into a plurality of partial regions, and generates a plurality of partial time-series images. The measuring unit measures temporal changes in deflection amount of the structure surface in the respective partial regions from the plurality of partial time-series images. The comparing unit compares the temporal changes in deflection amount of the structure surface in the respective partial regions. The determining unit determines an orientation of the time-series image with respect to a passage direction of the traffic load based on a result of the comparison.

    摘要: A test sample of a vulcanized rubber material is placed under a preset placement condition in a fixing frame in a test tank having a predetermined ozone concentration, and detection data is acquired by detecting, over time, with a laser sensor disposed facing a surface of the test sample that has been placed in the test tank, a distance from the laser sensor to the surface of the test sample; and determining a change in a surface state of the test sample between a plurality of points in time by analyzing, with a computation device, the detection data that has been acquired. Such evaluation method and evaluation system for evaluating ozone deterioration of a vulcanized rubber material can accurately determine a change over time in ozone deterioration while reducing working man-hours.

    摘要: A part defect testing system includes a hammer beam system that provides laser light having a first wavelength. A read-out beam system provides laser light having a second wavelength. A control system is used to direct the generated hammer beam laser light toward a first position on a part to provide an acoustic hammer pulse that induces surface movement of the part. An areal camera is arranged to produce an interferogram derived from reading surface movement of the part using the read-out beam directed to a second position on the part.

    摘要: An apparatus for measuring a surface topography of a patient's teeth may include an optical probe, a light source configured to generate incident light, and focusing optics configured to focus one or more wavelengths of the incident light to a fixed focal position external to the optical probe, wherein the fixed focal position is fixed relative to the optical probe. The apparatus may further include a light sensor configured to measure a characteristic of returned light generated by illuminating the patient's teeth with the incident light and a processing unit operable to determine the surface topography of the patient's teeth based on the measured characteristic of the returned light.
