Abstract: An exemplary object measuring method includes changing a focal length of a zoom lens in response to a user operation and taking images. The method then displays the images or one of them, determines a selected area, and defines the selected area as representing a object in the image. The method further determines virtual X and Y coordinate differences between a center point of an image and the object in the image. Next, the method calculates the actual differences between the testing device and the object. The method then controls the driving unit to drive the testing device to move a determined distance in an X direction and to move a determined distance in a Y direction.
