Method and system for determining dimensions of optically recognizable features

摘要

A method and system for determining dimensions of optically recognizable features provides a low-cost and efficient high speed/high resolution measurement system for determining surface feature dimensions. Multiple imaging subsystems are arranged at predetermined differing angles above a surface under test. A scanning subsystem moves either the imaging subsystems or the surface under test and a processor coupled to the imaging subsystems determines the height of a surface feature by determining the deviations between the outputs of the imaging systems as an edge of the surface feature passes within the optical paths of the imaging subsystems.
