ONLINE SCREEN CALIBRATION AND MEASURING METHOD

摘要

An on-line method for measuring dimensions including using a computer screen (252). The measurement method features a calibration technique which provide s for the display of an indicator (254) on the computer screen which is compar ed to an object (250), preferably a coin, which has known dimensions. By moving portions of an indicator to correspond to at least one known dimension of th e object along at least one axis, the number of pixels between two portions of the indicator may be divided into the length of the known dimension to calculate a calibration rule. The calibration rule may be utilized to conver t the number of pixels between two other locations on the screen into a length , such as may be utilized for the measuring of a human hand for fitting with a glove.
