  • Publication number: 20180120078
    Abstract: A flatness measurement device includes a movement platform, a standard component, a first flatness measuring device, a second flatness measuring device and a processor. The movement platform is used for driving a to-be-measured object to move. The standard component and the movement platform move together. The first flatness measuring device is used for measuring a first flatness information of the to-be-measured object when the to-be-measured object moves. The second flatness measuring device is used for measuring a second flatness information of the standard component when the standard component moves. A flatness information of the to-be-measured object is obtained by deducting the second flatness information from the first flatness information by the processor.

  • Patent number: 8923562
    Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) interactive device and an operation method thereof are provided. The 3D interactive device includes a projection unit, an image capturing unit, and an image processing unit. The projection unit projects an interactive pattern to a surface of a body, so that a user performs an interactive trigger operation on the interactive pattern by a gesture. The image capturing unit captures a depth image within an image capturing range. The image processing unit receives the depth image and determines whether the depth image includes a hand region of the user. If yes, the image processing unit performs hand geometric recognition on the hand region to obtain gesture interactive semantics. According to the gesture interactive semantics, the image processing unit controls the projection unit and the image capturing unit. Accordingly, the disclosure provides a portable, contact-free 3D interactive device.

  • Publication number: 20120092300
    Abstract: A virtual touch system including a head-mounted see-through display device, a micro-image display, at least two micro image-capturing devices, and an image processing unit is provided. The head-mounted see-through display device has a holder and an optical lens group that allows an image light of a real scene to directly pass through and reach an observing location. The micro-image display disposed on the holder of the head-mounted see-through display device casts a display image to the observing location through the optical lens group to generate a virtual image plane, wherein the virtual image plane contains a digital information. The micro image-capturing devices disposed at the holder capture images of the real scene and a touch indicator. The image processing unit coupled to the head-mounted see-through display device recognizes the touch indicator and calculates a relative location of the touch indicator on the virtual image plane for the micro-image display.

  • Patent number: 7872741
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus are disclosed for scatterfield microscopical measurement. The method integrates a scatterometer and a bright-field microscope for enabling the measurement precision to be better than the optical diffraction limit. With the aforesaid method and apparatus, a detection beam is generated by performing a process on a uniform light using an LCoS (liquid crystal on silicon) or a DMD (digital micro-mirror device) which is to directed to image on the back focal plane of an object to be measured, and then scattered beams resulting from the detection beam on the object's surface are focused on a plane to form an optical signal which is to be detected by an array-type detection device. The detection beam can be oriented by the modulation device to illuminate on the object at a number of different angles, by which zero order or higher order diffraction intensities at different positions of the plane at different incident angles can be collected.

  • Patent number: 7864324
    Abstract: A reflective scatterometer capable of measuring a sample is provided. The reflective scatterometer includes a paraboloid mirror, a light source, a first reflector, a second reflector and a detector. The paraboloid mirror has an optical axis and a parabolic surface, wherein the sample is disposed on the focal point of the parabolic surface and the normal direction of the sample is parallel with the optical axis. A collimated beam generated from the light source is reflected by the first reflector to the parabolic surface and then is reflected by the parabolic surface to the sample to form a first diffracted beam. The first diffracted beam is reflected by the parabolic surface to the second reflector and is then reflected by the second reflector to the detector.
